Whistler Generic

The Star Products TU-18 Whistle Generic is a useful tool for locating approximately TDC in cylinder leak testing. It can also be used to remount distributors correctly and to show if a timing belt or chain has slipped a notch or two.

The whistle plugs into the cylinder hose of the CLT-1 Cylinder Leakage Tester and whistles on the compression stroke. It stops whistling at approximately TDC. This makes it easy to identify the approximate position of the piston at top dead center.

The whistle can also be used to remount distributors correctly. When the distributor is installed correctly, the whistle will not whistle. If the distributor is installed incorrectly, the whistle will whistle. This can help to prevent costly mistakes when remounting a distributor.

The whistle can also be used to show if a timing belt or chain has slipped a notch or two. If the timing belt or chain has slipped, the whistle will whistle at a different time than it would if the timing belt or chain were correctly installed. This can help to identify a timing belt or chain problem before it causes damage to the engine.

The Star Products TU-18 Whistle Generic is a versatile and useful tool that can help mechanics to perform cylinder leak testing, remount distributors correctly, and identify timing belt or chain problems.
