Default Ford / Heyer Diagnostic Test Set

Finally getting back on my Stroboscope and Test Set machines. I have a very dirty instruction book for the Stroboscope. I would REALLY like to find instruction and parts books for the Diagnostic Test Set. Any help would be appreciated! Maybe, also a better set for the Stroboscope. Don

Instructions can be found in the 37-41 Ford service bulletins.

There are a few different Heyer machines. After the war they changed a lot.

I have a set missing the "tree" that holds the distributor. If anyone has one, sure would like to buy one.

Do you mean the one that is for the later 8BA style distributor or the the one for earlier two and three bolt distributors?
