Optimize Your Engine’s Performance with Precision

The OBDResource N124 is a professional-grade ignition timing light designed to help you regain your engine's peak power. Whether you are restoring a classic car or performing routine maintenance, this timing gun provides the accuracy you need to adjust ignition scales on flywheels or pulleys intuitively.

Compatible with all 12V ignition systems, it is the go-to tool for 2-stroke and 4-stroke gasoline engines in cars, motorcycles, ATVs, and marine vessels.

  • High-Intensity Daylight Strobe: Featuring a 58% brightness enhancement over standard models, the N124’s xenon-style flash remains sharp and visible even under bright garage lights or direct daylight.
  • Universal Compatibility: Specifically engineered for 12V petrol engines. Perfect for tuning automotive engines, motorcycles, boats, and RVs. (Note: Not compatible with Diesel engines).
  • Upgraded Durability: Built for the workshop. We’ve thickened the wiring by 25% and integrated a new line-machine design to prevent cable detachment and ensure a long-lasting service life.
  • Safe Inductive Pickup: The sliding inductive clamp allows for easy and safe connection to the No.1 cylinder spark plug wire without needing to strip any insulation.
  • Ergonomic "Pistol-Grip" Design: The handle is designed for comfort during extended use, featuring a responsive trigger and high-impact ABS construction.

It does what it do

The media could not be loaded.









Came in quick. Doesn't feel super sturdy or stout. But I wasn't expecting quality construction for the price. Great value for the cost. Light is bright and does its job

Great little timing light

Compact design & worked great. No issues setting timing on a 1966 Volkswagen. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great ignition timing light for the price—you really can’t beat it. It worked exactly as expected. I think most of the negative reviews are from people who either didn’t read the instructions or didn’t follow their vehicle’s service manual step by step when using it.One recommendation: before using it, clean the timing marks on your engine and highlight the correct timing mark for your specific vehicle with a bright paint marker or paint pen. It makes the marks much easier to see and helps ensure an accurate timing adjustment.Overall, it works great. Thank you so much!

Worked Well

Worded as it should. One shortcoming is the spring loaded clips that clap onto the battery terminals. They are made of very weak thin metal and bent open without much pressure. I will be replacing those with others that I have.otherwise it allowed me time set the timing.

Good Product for Price

I’m kind of a “YouTube” mechanic lol working on my own vehicles and watching videos to learn how to do it if I don’t know how..I had to change the Distributor on my 1994 beat around Ranger and set timing after.This timing light worked great.. not heavy duty I would say. But for home mechanic or limited use.. I would highly recommend.Great product for cost!

Harley Davidson timing. Works as described

No issues. Worked great. Just connect to the battery, place the lead on the spark plug wires, and your off to the races. I'd recommend getting the sight plug for the timing hole though.. I got a lot of oil on my glasses... I'm a newb. I know.

Timed my 12 hp Kohler engine just fine.

Timed my 1 cylinder K301. Seeing thru the hole in the flywheel shroud wasn't easy, but that is on Kohler. I think the light was missing some flashes, the engine was running smoothly. Perfectly fine for occasional use. Weight is a non issue.

It works and is cheap but is very dim

It works and is cheap but is very dim. If you get this, be prepared to use it in the dark. The light is very dim.I used a white paint pen to highlight the timing marks and did it at night and it worked fine.But, for the money, it's worth it.

“Precisa y fácil de usar para ajustar el motor 🔧✨

Esta lámpara de tiempo me ha sido súper útil para hacer ajustes rápidos y precisos en el motor. La conexión inductiva es muy sencilla y la luz es fuerte y clara, lo que hace el trabajo más fácil incluso en talleres con poca iluminación. Es una herramienta confiable que cualquier aficionado o mecánico debería tener. ¡Muy recomendada!

Cheap feeling, but enough.

Low quality and I don't expect it to last long, but it's enough to at least get the job done. I pulled the hood enough into the garage to ensure I could see the light, but it was plenty bright for a sunny Colorado day as long as the external light wasn't directly on the timing markers.If I get a handful more uses out of this, I consider it an overall good value.
