The drip method is measuring start of delivery (the start of fuel being compressed). When you use a piezoelectric timing light you are measuring start of injection (pressure has built up in the lines enough and the injector actually starts injecting fuel). I'm not 100% that its start of injection with the timing light (might be end of injection or something), but start of injection is the most likely IMHO.

I've never seen anything. If you find something though PLEASE share!!
