ABSTRACT:
An Improved Timing Device used as a tool to reduce the time required to tune an 8.2 liter diesel engine or any similar engine which utilizes the same timing procedure, the timing device preferred embodiment comprises a mounting plate, a housing assembly having a pressure and pilot guide side, and a location pin. The displacement of the location pin may be effectuated by using a pneumatic, electrical, or mechanical power source having a control switch which allows the user to set the location pin of the device into the location point of the vehicle's flywheel from the engine compartment, thus eliminating the necessity of resetting by hand the location pin from underneath the vehicle for each piston of the vehicle's engine. The Improved Timing Device would replace the old style hand positioned location pin or similar devices used for determining the top dead center of each of the vehicle's pistons when setting the valves and injectors to the manufacturer's specification.
