Hi can anyone give me a heads up on a timing gun, and if I were to buy one with a tacho is it worth the extra money and will it work on two stoke ok ?
Its my birthday soon so can spend a bit of money ;)

I use this one as do many others. You may find it cheaper but this is the first one that popped up on e bay. You need a battery to use it. Simple but effective and accurate.

High-tech internal circuitry-auto-ranging allows the timing light to skip every other flash for a brighter light and longer life
