One comment for anyone using this - especially with an engine under load
or even at no load for that matter, if its not on the packet or the info
has since been lost...

Don't look - in line of sight with the spark plug - just in case the quartz
fractures and it goes in your eye, the little mirror supplied with the unit
is for that specific purpose - so you *don't* ever look "Straight" in line
with the plug.

Even safety glasses may not help you - because it depends on the safety
lens rating - some are 'low' impact etc. Even the so called high impact ones
might come from some country where 'high' means "good enough" in their
language and hence puts you at risk from losing an eye - especially under
load...

So please please, use the mirror at all times and only use the Colour Tune
for short periods - it does get rather hot...

Some say there is no magic but, all things begin with thought then it becomes
academic, then some poor slob works out a practical way to implement all that
theory, this is called Engineering - for most people another form of magic.
