    Hello,
    Who in the club can recharge a 1936 Evinrude model 4148 flywheel?
    Thanks

    Do you have a local chapter near you as some members own a Stevens or similar unit needed to charge weak magnets. A strong magnetic field is necessary to generate a good spark and iron flywheel magnets in pre war motors tend to degenerate with age but not so much for post war magnets made out of ALNICO.

    Since I couldn’t find a charger anywhere, I ended up making one.
