Innova 3568 Digital Timing Light

worked great!

Best timing light I've ever had. Easy to use too. Love the advance feature oh and the RPM reading is so handy, priceless. To Innova: can we have a case for it soon please? There's one on here advertised to fit it but give another AI this model # and the dimensions of that case. Says it cannot possibly fit. Thats what I said... we need a case please.

Works as Advertised

Never had either a timing light or tachometer before, so i cannot compare the Equus 3568 to anything else. Had i known how useful and easy-to-use it was, and how affordable, i would have purchased it sooner! Seems well-built, with an easily-read display and rubbery plastic pushbuttons commonly found on electronics in modern times. The 3568 made it vastly easier to troubleshoot and adjust my totally non-running Slant 6 engine. I did find that when the engine would not start, the 3568 would not fire on any single cylinder's plug... not sure if that was due to too-low a firing voltage or the RPMs being slow enough that the 3568 chose not to read. I moved the pickup to the coil wire, and that gave me flashes and the cranking timing information i needed. Once the engine was again running, it was extremely easy to adjust both idle speed and basic timing. With my engine running a bit unevenly at first, it was hard to mentally average the RPM display (this would be true of any digital RPM display that did not have a specific averaging function). Other than that, it was dirt-easy and dirt-simple to use this fine tool. If i were making a feature request to Actron, it would be to add either of a manually-invoked averaging function for the RPM display for engines not (yet) running smoothly, or a bargraph analog RPM display, weighted to average, below the digital display (similar to a Fluke 77 multimeter). Since this would only be needed for an engine not running smoothly, it would be a nice bonus, yet not essential. I did OK with the 3568 as it is, until things were dialed-in enough to be fairly smooth. Again, i cannot compare the Equus 3568 to any competing products, yet i am wholly satisfied with my purchase, and would recommend this timing light/tachometer to anyone.

Nice quality, decent price

Exactly what was needed to dial in timing on my 71 super beetle. Helpful to set the timing degrees at different stages of carburetor and distributor setup.

Nice design, worked perfect the first two times I used it. Failed on the 3rd use. Followed all instructions and troubleshooting to the letter. Readout and tach still work, but flashlamp is dead. Out of return window, so I'm stuck unless Innova will replace this item as a goodwill gesture!

WOW. Setting the timing is so so easy with this timing light. Adjust idle to 2000RPM and set timing light to 32ODC and move distributor till you see the line hit top dead center on the tab on the motor. It's that simple. Throw that outdated timing light in the garbage!!

Good

Worked easy. As expected. Shows rpm and you can change advance/retard. Perfect!

La forma en que se puede mover el ángulo de la luz facilita el uso para algunos vehículos en donde la polea es de difícil acceso El material del que está fabricado no es contra impacto, así que debe manipularse con cuidado La forma en que trabaja es excelente por el avance de grados que se puede seleccionar Muy satisfecho con la compra 🛒🛒

Compared to the old MSD timing gun that I have, this Innova one is worth every cent. Very bright and made of good quality plastic. I can't judge on the accuracy but the quality and features are really good.
