    Tubs Could you mill a pocket in the mag plate and set the coil in it ? you would have to stager the laminates.


    Yes Gary. Thought about going a all the way through.
    Could seal the edges of the coil easy enough but the
    coil tab for the spark plug runs into the gas tank. Only
    having one RBM coil to experiment with limits what
    I can try. Now that I have cut it up my options are reduced
    even more. Also I cant modify my mag plate to the point
    that I cant return to a buzz coil if in fact I’m successful
    only to find out a substitute coil won’t produce a strong
    enough spark to start the motor.

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