Jul 21st, 2025 | | | | Joined: Apr 2008 Posts: 888 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Apr 2008 Posts: 888 | Found an old non inductive timing light but am missing the spring like connector used to connect the light to the spark plug. One end attaches to the spark plug and the other to the spark plug boot. Any ideas where I might find one? Online search was not successful. Thanks. Ed
