1.55mm of timing?

I don't have a timing tool and was wondering at what point on the pump timing mark would this equal to approximatley. Another words would it equal 1/16, 1/8 bump etc.

Thanks

1.55mm is equal to .06 inches, I don't know where that fits into the fractions unfortunately

I have the Snap-On tool that converts injector line pressure surges to timing light flashes, so when the video on "bumping the timing" is up I'll make a chart to convert the fractions to degrees BTDC.

I've been looking through the snap on catalog and can't find the tool. I will buy it if I can find it? Any one got a tool # for it? Or I guess I will wait til Friday and ask my dealer.

Oh and I now see Mike T. is here in AZ. If you would like you can barrow my dail guage to "tune" your truck. I got the one that screws in the back of your pump with a dail indacater on the end of it.

Thanks Justin, I've never used one of those dail indacaters before, don't know where it goes. I'm down in Sierra Vista about 20 mi. from the border.

Oh, well If you want to make the trip then ok. I thought that you were one of the guys out in Tempe. Do you plan on making it up to the dyno day they are planning on? I could bring it then.
