If your timing light is jumping around, it could be due to several factors. One common reason is a poor connection between the timing light's clamp and the spark plug wire, leading to inconsistent readings. Additionally, engine vibrations or misfiring could cause fluctuations in the readings. Checking the connections and ensuring the engine is running smoothly can help resolve the issue.
