Snap on timing gun on 502 mag??
I've got 97 502 magnum mpi's with msd cap rotors and coils. I am trying to time these motors with a snap on eetl500 timing gun but the gun keeps crashing freezing restarting etc. anyone have any experience with this gun? I talked to snap on the tech says its cause its a boat..... Don't understand that one. I wanted a good brand name gun with advance cause to time it I'm laying on the running motors

cant use a digital gun with msd systems. it will cook your nice expensive timing light!!!!! been there done that... you have to use a old school light. my snapon light has the dial on the back for advance and retard. sometimes the fancy digital stuff doesnt work with the old school stuff lol

I went to Auto Zone and bought a light for this issue.
