Possibly Colortune, made in England, availble through Eastwood Restoration
Products.

That be a surprise.
The Tool is basically a spark plug with a "window" into the chamber. Neat, but
no good for serious power tuning as it's not very durable, and it's really tough
to get somebody to help tune during high speed runs. Well, it's easy enough to
get someone duct taped to the fender in a position to watch the colortune, the
problem is they're either too nervous to pay attention to the Colortune, or too
drugged to care.

BTW, Stan, if you're still out there, I bought a roll of the "real" 100mph tape
if you're willing to try again...
