I think my brother has my old timing light & dwell meter.

I still have both of mine (dad's old strobe timing light and vacuum
meter), and they have about 1/4" of dust on them now, under my toolbox

Vacuum gauges are still very handy for engine testing....


But as there's no way for a home mechanic to REPAIR an engine, why
bother?
