[QUOTE="Martyn Goodwin, post: 31794, member: 2433"] I need to strobe time my Comet that has a BT-H installed because there is no way (that I can figure out) to check the actual timing provided by a BT-H magneto. I do know how to use a timing light but locating a suitable location to actually check the timing is elusive. Has anyone strobe timed a Comet before? If yes, where did you find or make your timing marks? I have thought about putting some timing marks on the outside of the magneto drive gear which is accessable behing the ATD cover on the right hand side of the motor but this seems to be of too small diameter for any accurate use. What has been used and worked in the past? Thanks, Martyn [/QUOTE]
