Here's another ignitor which looks to be of marine use. All brass body. Let me know if it rings any bells. Thanks. |

The brass unit might be familiar but I have to look something up after work; however I have a general guestion: arn't a lot of marine igniters made with the insulated part in the head as a separate screw in part? |

Thanks Tom. There certainly were a number of engines which had the ignition arrangement of which you speak. The Sintz patent has been discussed on here recently and is a good example of one fixed point through the head and the second point on a pivot throgh the cylinder wall. However, I believe that the majority of the ignitor equipped engines had a single body housing both points (such as Acadia, Atlantic, etc.). Blair |
