Timing light in Indian

I see Mac and a few guys are talking about timing lights....

I need my truck timed but dont have the cash to go buy a timing light and ferret adapter currently. Does anyone in the Indiana area have one that they would be willing to help me time my IDI with ? If so, let me know how much you would want to help me time this old beast ?

My truck is on the verge of a catastrophic failure and thats a bit far to drive my gas truck.

So the only days i can do this are Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday when i can borrow my wife's car...

Injection pump is crapping out.... Timing is wandering all over the place....

I like my 85, but its a killer when it's time to fill it up...

I need to find a good used IP....

Sounds like I'm going to be running up there early this coming week (17th-19th). I know it's very short notice, but you said to let you know...

If anyone shows up at my door without pizza and beer, I'm going to tell you I have a 460 under the hood of that dually and I don't have a clue what you're talking about

Nor do I know anything about those settling tanks and what that centrifuge does

$2.00 per gallon

My truck needs a few things fix'd before I could make that trip. Since it got cold, my u-joints are demanding attention and a new oil leak behind the intake manifold will prevent a trip that far up the highway.

The oil leak is the deal breaker as I may have to remove the intake. This may have to wait until Spring.
