That was more than 30 years ago. Who cares?

Another imdb.com poster in his post here http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000741/board/thread/184305744 , said he didn't know that Tim Allen spent 28 months in jail, so that would have how long he was in jail in less the was in jail 2 different times before he went on to tv and movies. But that is quite a way to change around your life as the user had said in his post. So I hope that this answers your question about how long he was in jail for.

around 3 years; there are rumors he 'flipped' on co-defendants in order to avoid serving 30 years as originally planned by the DA.

I can't believe how many people whined because Tim got a lighter sentence for "ratting out" some major drug dealers! Like any one of you wouldn't do the same thing! Look, whenever anyone gets arrested for a drug offence, the first thing the arresting officers ask is "where did you get it?" Then they offer you a lighter sentence in exchange for information. Who wouldn't do it? Maybe some serious druggies who are going to get right back into it as soon as they get out, but Tim Allen straightened out, and has lived a clean life ever since. At least give him credit for that!
