: Frank, : I guess my first question would be why are you asking? Magneto's definately fall under the "if it aint broke don't fix it" catagory. Does your B run well? If so, leave it alone. If not, you should be able to pull the wire from one of the plugs while she's running and get a good strong blue spark. If not, look at the cheap parts first (cap, wires, etc) and then look at getting the magnet recharged. If none of this works you may want to get a new mag, I believe they can be gotten relativly cheap at swap meets at they are pretty common. hope this helps. Gary : : I was wondering if someone could tell me how to go about checking to see if your magneto is putting out enough fire. FOR A TRUE TEST, YOU NEED A FACTORY TEST BENCH WITH SPARK GAPS SET AT 3/16 INCH. SPIN THE MAGNETO AT LOW IMPULSE RPM..SPARK SHOULD JUMP GAP AND BE BRILLIANT BLUE. IF YOUR MAG FAILS THIS TEST, YOU HAVE INTERNAL PROBLEMS THAT NEED CHECKED IN A MAG SHOP.
