Mag. Start typical is damp engine & low throttle posn. To damp ( saturated )& it'll flood plugs .
The K2FC has a greater spark for start up than the standard one .
Lucas Mags pre 56 had smaller input shaft , that shears . So for a Snappy Runner , a 56 ' Big Bearing ' Mag. is nessesary .
The Old SR II mags got around all that . The SR4 is a tractor Mag .
The HUNT mag is similar to the SR Lucas , Raceing Magneto ( AJS Porcipine / 10.000 rpm + , & G 45 Matchless Twin )
Being NEW it wouldnt be suject to fretted bindings and other ills plaugeing the Lucas Mags .
Noteably , Aircraft run Magneto's , as its a integrated and reliable system .
Also , you can hook the Alternator direct to the Lighting System .
No regulator / rectifier / zener diode ,
though maybe a current limiter could be of use. You get REAL GOOD headlamp full rpms in top , cuts through fog like
you wouldnt believe.Startings straightforward , if you follow the correct drill , cold . No Problem warm .
Usually just push the cylinders through , cold . To Prime . Kicking through will spark off the mixture .
So two compressions , luke warm ,. Four with the carbs wet , if its Freezeing . Ka Pow , running . Real Grunty off the Line , too .
8) Bit like a 2MC capacitor , Key ' off ' untill the time is right , etc .
Never would have had these problems , if we'd stuck to Horses . :? 8)
