First I’ll tell you what I do know. These little
magneto will put out a spark just by giving
them a good twist with your hand with the
spark plug out. With the module its not even
close.
Will it start pulling over with a rope? Not
sure as I didn’t try to. When I get the mag
turned around and try it again that will be one
thing I will try.
How does it work? I don’t understand how any
of this crap works. I believe the module senses
when the polarity of the magnet changes as
it passes over the coil and then produces the spark.
How that is possible is beyond me and I may
be totally wrong here and that’s not how it works
at all.
Here is something I’m curious about. If you
put them in a 2 cylinder. Like the OMC universal
mag that has points for each cylinder would you
need to switch the plug wires?
More experiments to come. I’ll be posting the
results.

A "Boathouse Repair" is one thats done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.
