Default Can anyone identify this tool?

This was part of my dearly departed grandfather's (RIP grandaddy) stash of tools I got from his shop awhile back. He did tons of handy work, but mostly worked on small engines for over 15 years during his retirement.

I think it's missing some parts, and may not even work at all. I'll probably just chunk it if it's not worth using for anything. It has a piece on the shaft that looks like it might fit in a spark plug hole. Something to do with measuring cylinder diameter maybe? The dial has the Tecumseh Equipment logo on it.

It looks like it's used to find tdc.

*edit* WHOA sells for $117 new, maybe it'll go up on eBay!
