Hi, all. I just bought a W-9 project and want to establish what I have to work with before spending a lot on it. It"s been stored inside, the engine is loose, and it turns over nicely with its rebuilt starter.
It doesn"t have spark, and has a 12 volt conversion (single wire alternator) with magneto. The seller said it was as if someone had converted the mag into a distributor. The magneto has 2 external Farmall style condensers and a standard cylindrical coil outside (the mag"s coil is probably bad). The wiring is rough and one wire is pulled out of a condenser.
It has a couple of toggle switches, one is spring loaded and works as the starter switch (via solenoid). I figure the other is the kill switch, but there is also has a strange plastic switch that looks something like the plastic key switch on a snow blower.
I have several pictures that I would be glad to e-mail anyone who might be able to give me some ideas. Again, at this point I"d just like to see if I can make it fire and run. Eventually, I"ll clean up the wiring and hopefully get a correct coil for the mag. Any ideas on this setup?
