Commonly, an induction timing light on carburated engines. On newer, computer controlled engines, scanners like an OBDII diagnostic scanner just read what the engine computer says.
you may have a short in the ignition swith get test checked, a steering column specialist can do this in a couple of minutes
If a car backfires, the fuel mixture is incorrect. I believe it's too lean. Also, timing could be off. Try increasing the fuel mixture with the jets on the carburetor. You may want to reference your VW shop manual for which one to use. If that doesn't solve the problem, then have a garage time the vehicle to make sure pre-ignition isn't happening.

A barometer.

mine slipped on the timing belt itself so check the timing first then work the fuses and then use a tachometer on the ignition coil if not it you might have a fried motor man
Use a good quality timing light and check your ignition timing.
The timing on that year engine is computer controlled. It requires an engine scanner to set the timing. YOU CAN NOT USE A TIMING LIGHT.
not for changing the belt. however you will need it for the ignition timing once you have replaced the timing belt
No there are no timing marks. The engine controller controls the ignition timing the input sensor is the knock sensor.
YES but you MUST use an OBD2 engine scanner to do it. But if there is NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON then there is NO need to set the timing. It is computer controlled.
The 96 Impala LT1 uses an optispark ignition system in which timing is controlled by the PCM (Computer). In order to change the timing you would need to use a computer, cable, and a tuning program such as PCM4Less or Tunercat. The Optispark mounted on the front of the engine is non adjustable for timing controls. The timing is controlled by the PCM sending signals to the ignition control module located adjacent to the coil on the passenger head.

You can not use a timing light to set the timing on that year engine. The ignition timing is COMPUTER CONTROLLED. If you have not fooled with the distributor then there is no reason to adjust it. But if you have bother it then you will need an oBDII engine scanner to put the timing back to factory specs.
penlight
to check the sensitivity of the instrument
A strobe gun is also called a timing light. It is a device used to set ignition timing on car engines that use distributor ignition systems. It has a way to connect to an ignition wire (usually a clamp induction pickup). The gun flashes whenever the spark plug it's connected to fires.
