Re: 38 Elto Pal Spark

Thanks for your replies. My ohm meter tells me that all the connections are good and working as they should. Most of my work has been with Johnson A series motors from the 1920s, and yes I would agree Kevin, that based on my experience with those motors it would be unusual to have the problem relate to the magnets. I cleaned the points with 400 grit paper but won’t rule that out. The Pal has a very simple magneto, could I be missing something? As far as I can tell you set the point gap by simply visually observing if the points are open or closed.
