P.S. your threads on all these subjects help out alot. It's better then searching for hours on the web.

Ron,
Yes, you can do that, but it will take a lot longer to do because you have to keep turning the engine over and over and over. Speaking of that, I forgot to mention you need to pull the plugs out to make turning the engine over easier.
Back to the 45 degree question.
There is really no reason to do it. I would just take the readings every 90 degrees. We have been doing that for 12 years now with NO problems.
