I've been looking all over the net and on google but man it's hard I can't find one. Texasrigwelder do you know the number where you got your mag from?? This magneto I've got well it's doing what seems to be strange to me. I just had the motor all rebuilt now when I time the magneto to fire on number 4 cylinder well I turn the mag by hand it fires on number 4 then i turn it again and it doesn't fire which I assume it is firing on one of the other 3 plugs then I turn it for a 3rd time and it will fire again on number 4 now is this normal? I can see it firing on number 4 which would be the intake stroke on number four and then maybe it will fire on a exhaust stroke which I would think really doesn't matter do yall kinda understand what I'm saying?? is this normal for this thing to do this?? I put the magneto back on the engine but haven't fired it yet because waiting on the waterpump to get rebuilt but been thinking about this if this is normal or not. What do yall think??

Thanks
Chris

runs a better bead i think, its a lot hotter its getting smoother, hot passes alright can be alittle ruff with hyps, cap is alright i tested here with it with 6 hrs on it that wasnt fun

I assume as it gets more broken in maybe it'll weld even better

its got 400hrs on it  now i was told around 1000 it starts smothing out and staying there , its like welding with a different machine everyday right now
