Wow that mag throws a lot of spark. 👍

That was the most useless tutorial I have ever seen

Back in the 1960s, I had a Wico magneto on a WW2 surplus lifeboat engine that was installed in our old 24', 1929 double-ended lapstrake boat "Corky". The engine was a Gray Marine Sea Scout 4-91. 4-banger. 25 HP. Smooth flywheel. No starter. No generator. You'd either kick or pull the flywheel over by hand. The impulse start feature was great! I miss old "Corky"!

What if it's not giving a spark and i replaced the coil and condensor

Part part of the country do you live? What town and state? I need to get in touch with you

Excellent video love it I'm just taking the same magneto apart but have some broken parts on the inside behind the bearing

Thank you Rudy. I'm getting ready to overhaul an H4 magneto on a friend's McCormick-Deering W6 tractor.

I cleaned up the coil,and the inside of the mag.I get a spark.I think I need turn the mag and check the timing mark. Thanks for the video.

Thank you you cleared that up for me. Made it easy

Sorry Bud, you might know mags but you don't know how to install them.

Totally unrelated but! What camera did you shoot this video on? It is super nice image quality!

What’s a rebuild cost roughly on one of these? I pulled the cover off mine and was a bit overwhelmed with the inside I’d love to see a video of you explaining what I was looking at I’ll need to double check the model

Hello! .... I'm trying to get an old bike running that has no spark. It has a Lucas N1 4 magneto. I assumed the cable control was adv/rtd mechanism..... but I cannot find a kill switch.... does the cable and lever serve this function? ...many thanks

U 😊😊 should always start the sparkplugs by hand 1ST then use a deep wall socket and tighten up the tractor sounds good 😊🎉 OMG 4 14 2O24

I😊😊 know what U are talking about the fiber wire 😮😮 is junk copper sparkplug wire is better it carries the current alot better and is hotter spark at the sparkplugs and that's what U should use on tractors trucks cars 😊😊 OMG 4 14 2O24

Excellent video, great job, Rudy.

Hi I have a cat d 17A with a pony motor, I changed the points and condenser, I have spark with plugs out, but when I put them in I lose spark, its an american bosch MJK. any thoughts?

Hi Rudy, I have some NOS IH magneto couplers, and am trying to identify their application and hopefully part numbers - you're clearly an expert, any chance I could send you some pictures and you could see what you think?

Thank you!

I have my 1944 John Deere A timed like you have but it still has a hard time starting I have been told to check the timing marks on the inside of the mag I’m told it’s the start time where does it need to be set at

Thank you Hyatt, and the same to you and yours!

That is a heck of a mag. The one you did for my 39B about a year ago is still going strong. Got caught in a couple rains doing parades and no problems. You do good work...

Great video! Do you sell any Eismann parts or services?

Hi Rudy! Neat mag demonstration. You are definitely the mag and carb guru. Appreciate the video and Happy Holidays to you and your family. Hyatt

Most helpfully explained, thanks very much!

Had Rudy rebuild the Wico on my 43 John Deere A recently. Did an amazing job.

Just found liked and subscribed. I really like a engine that has a good mag. However Ive never really repaired one. I simply add a coil and turn then into a Disr . However then you have to use a battery wire up a switch and install a ballast resistor. We have a Old M Farmall. It has a good mag and is on LP. Let it set anyplace. No Gas or battery for anyone to steal. Just take the hand crank and start it. usually starts on the second pull.

I have an American Bosch magneto question is do I go to batery ground or chassis ground to make it cut out and how exactly does it connect under cap? Is the copper tang supposed to touch something in there I'm not sure about this. Please help

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your the BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rudi is a great guy to deal with. He's done two mags for me X-Type and he don't laugh at my stupid questions. At least not out loud.

Yes it does. By the way I had to cut those boots to make them stay on those plugs but it works.

I love it, Thank you again for rebuilding my magneto!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very nice!!

Hello, do you know the firing order on the Minneoopolis Moline ZAU? Thank you

Hi, very informative video. I am working on a Minneopolis Moline ZAU. I believe it is a 1960. When I try to start I get smoke from the exhaust and it seems to be near starting. I put on a new rotor and plug wires and plugs. You mentioned that there are tractors that do not need to have timing checked. Does this apply to the Moline?

I'm thinking about making the 11hr trip to you how far are u booked out to have it dun while I wait

Thank you very much. I have a ac wd without a mag. It has points. My farmall does have a mag. I had one man work on it. He got it to run but the impulse does not work. Do I need to worry about that? My father once had a shop to work on it. In the paper work they stated they recharged the magnets. That was 50 years ago. How often does that need to be done? The old tractor is still helping in the garden today. Thank you very much I did enjoy the video.

Very interesting thank you.

I sure would like to see my Wico X you're sending me making spark.

Rudy that was absolutely fascinating and your explanation of how it works was great Good job it's beautiful.

Looks and works perfect Good job.

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would love a video of you rebuilding my Splitdorf 46-C magneto for my 10-20. Hint Hint Hint. Thanks

What do you charge for a mag

SO many people that don't know all this, make it way too hard trying to time their engine. I think the most often committed mistake people make, is not finding the compression stroke first. They bring #1 to the TDC mark on the flywheel , thinking they have it, not realizing TDC comes twice on every cylinder in a 4 stroke engine and you HAVE to have spark on the compression stroke. Some know about getting it to the compression stroke, but think you have to take the valve cover off to see when both valves are closed at TDC. That's just added unnecessary work when a finger over the plug hole will tell you the same thing.

This was the coolest video I have seen in a long time.

Excellent video!!

Rudy, I am starting a Welding,fabrication,foundry and light machine shop specializing in pre-war boat tail racers and many use magnetos and if they do not then they should. Are there any good repair manuals out there that I can use to learn about servicing and rebuilding and maybe even making my own line of magnetos. I am starting my UA-cam channel with a 1928 Morgan Aero GN Special. I sourced an opposed twin experimental aircraft engine and I am supercharging it and I would like it to have a magneto. I am casting an aluminum two piece adapter to mate it to an MG transmission to have 4 gears forward and a reverse along with decent rear brakes...

Thanks for the video! I am working on a Bessemer single cylinder engine for our local museum that uses this type of mag. I'm going to play with it today. I did notice the ceramic hat is missing for the safety gap. Are these components available still? I'll check your website out.
