Magnetos

Post by Bill_Wolf »

This is a little Off Topic but I know most of us own other military iron other than just CCKW's. I found this on another site about a guy who repairs miltary magnetos.

I have not used him but here is his information.

Thanks as that is good info. Magneto repair is a real speciality and generally found only in the aviation field and because they have to work to FAA specs costs are high.
Happy New Year Bill and the rest of you guys. :lol: :lol:

Mags are not that difficult to work on. I have fixed numerous magnetos
On hit and miss engines also on old dozers. 9 times out of ten the problem is caused form moisture or a bad wire.So play around with it a bit before seening it of for a rebuilt.
