Re: MK55 coil mounting location?

[beerman57]

Goo (coil) is out. Should I try to get the armature out of it? Points and condenser are out too. If I try to disassemble the mag to soak it in acetone (seems to cut the goo), in the top there are 3 bolts holding a housing around the shaft, if I pull that housing there won’t be an explosion of parts, right? I have a parts manual, but they aren’t as good as the more modern "exploded view" parts lists.
