Greetings all,

*Sigh*  Even the seemingly simplest things working on the Pokeswagen
makes me feel like a dumbass.

So my good old timing light that worked beautifully on my Ford seems to
have the distinct drawback that it doesn't have *12' of cable to get to
the battery!*  Argh!!!  I searched Gerry, found a bazillion slooooow
hits on timing lights and the following advice:

  - Connect it to terminal 15 on the coil & ground to engine.
  - Connect it to the positive terminal on the alternator and ground to
    engine.

Can I assume either of these options will work.  All that I read about
the sensitive nature of the various ignition and fuel injection system
components has me still spooked and the last thing I want to do is blow
something out.

Thanks,
-MB
