Ron, I bought a spark tester at the parts house for 3-4 or 5 dollars and I use it all of the time. One end is shaped like the top of a spark plug so your wire snaps onto it and the other end has about a foot of wire with an alligator clip on the end. In the middle is a fixture where you can see the spark aginst a black background and you can adjust the gap to about any width. It seems that I'm always working on an unstyled tractor by myself so it's hard to just "hold the wire next to the block" while turning the fly wheel, watching the timing marks and etc. One of those cheap but handy things to have around.
