Actron CP7529 review after 10 years ownership
Actron CP7529 has a “flashlight” button to just make the strobe light flash so fast that it looks like a flashlight. It also has a 2/4 cycle button but never seen anyone adjusting timing on a two cycle engine. Actron mag clamp is all metal.The Actron is 10 years old, is stored in toolbox with other stuff,and recently the wiring on the mag pickup was loose, I opened and tightened wiring and it is working again.Innova is brand new so don’t know how long it will last.Compared to Innova on the tubesearch for “vrrQrzg2hy0”
