For a 2 cylinder , 2 stroke engine, you'll need to 2 coils. I'll try to go back and find the links for the wiring of the timer and the coils. miro |

Came out of a lake? You might want to keep it immersed in fresh water and flush it periodically. Lake water can have odd effects at times. I've seen a large steam engine frame scab and crumble from lake exposure. Something in the chemistry of the water did it. Definitely pressure wash it or soda-blast it first to clean the crud off so the flushing action can reach the metal. |
