REFLECTOR: Exhaust systems

[Mike Pollock]

We just use a piece of wire connected to the end of the shielded lead and
the induction pickup works then.

perhaps you could temporarily swap out the number one plug wire for an
unshielded one to do your timing....

You will not get an induction type pickup timing light to work with shielded
wires.  I have shielded wires for my mag and the induction timing light will
not work.

My EI uses regular automotive ignition wires. You just clip the sensor
over the wire.

I'm not sure how it would work on shielded wires, though I think it
would work fine.
