Is it possible to properly set the ignition timing with a basic actron scan tool and skip the timing light altogether? My scan tool shows engine timing so that’s why I’m wondering. Plus it seems like it could be a bit easier.

Engine timing without timing light?

Wait a minute. I’m not sure I understand. You’re saying it can be done with a scan tool?
