IGNITION SYSTEM
54
At operating speed, the ignition should produce
voltage approaching 12,000. See Figure 7.11.
At pull-over speed (~
600 RPM), voltage should
be at least 10,000V. See Figure 7.12.
NOTE: Flash-over voltage will vary with spark
plug condition and gap.
NOTE: Pull-over speed may vary from operator
to operator.
NOTE: Failure of the magnets in the flywheel is
exceedingly rare. To test the magnets, simply
hold an item made of ferrous metal roughly 1/4”
(.635cm) away from the magnets in the flywheel.
It should be drawn to the flywheel. A wrench or
screwdriver is suitable for this test.
