I'd actually splash out on one designed for cars. Things like dwell and
RPM measurement. Dwell allows you to check the state of the points without

Points?, aren't they for trains to run o??.....

However, a dwell meter still has its uses on a modern car. All coils -
even multiple ones - will still give a dwell reading pretty similar to
points ignition. A dwell meter will also give a reading from (some)
injectors, as it measures the mark space ratio.
