Default Alex?

Dave,

You need to get a hold of one of Alex Blairs manuals for these machines. All of the electrical, mechanical, and other things that you need to know are contained in these works.

Alex trolls this site, so he already has one ready for you.

His manuals are top notch - really a must have.


Stewart



PS - somebody will tell you that you don't need much for a quickie start up - but then not be availible for help when you fry a US$155.00 ignition coil or some such thing.

Assuming that you have the + to ground, all you need is a short jumper from the - to the coil. include the ballast resister, and a switch, and bob's yer uncle.

Stick a voltmeter on the cut out relay to see if the gen is working, if you have time.
