A problem is that it has flywheel with four magnets there. How can I remove unnecessary three magnets from flywheel? Thanks for advise.

    Hi Mike, I fixed an old coil that the wire broke on the inside today. One of those 1947 TD-20 backwards coils. Strange design with the magnet in the middle and not on the flywheel. I was able to solder new wire on and patch up my access into the coil. Wasn't sure if it was possible but it worked👍

    How critical is it to have the coils "perfectly" spaced from the magneto? I have replaced all my electrics and still have no spark in my '73 evinrude 9.5. Everything's attached the way it should be but I don't have the alignment ring to properly space the coils.

      i just came here to find the answer you are chasing. My thoughts after seeing this man magnetise a bolt to the flywheel magnets. I think you have a good amount of tolerance seeing as though that bolt was magnetised from at least 3-5mm away?

    So my understanding is that the points simply collapse the primary winding's field which in turn induces voltage into the secondary winding producing an increased secondary voltage to fire the high resistance plug.

    • @dougcook1176
      @dougcook1176 2 года назад

      Yes the permanent magnet in the flywheel generates a voltage/current which saturates the primary winding of the coil. When the points open the field collapses in the primary coil and induces a voltage into the secondary coil which then fires the spark plug. As far as the high resistance plug these old outboards use solid wire secondary wires and regular spark plugs. The resistance is the spark plug gap which the high secondary voltage (20K plus) is able to bridge.

    I wonder if the magnet is a neodymium magnet, and at what strength. For my home made break disc windgen I used 24 N45 neodymium magnets. N55 is too strong and will fry my coils.
    Or is the magnet in the outboard engine just a regular black ferrite magnet. Thanks in advance for the info.!

    Say thank you to bringing things into focus, I do have a question. I have a 1955 Evinrude 5.5hp, it starts very nicely and idles great but on high speed is lacking some power (I'm test running while in the lake.) I don't have a speed gauge but it feels like it's only doing 5 or so mph. Mind you, I have this motor mounted on a 16 foot canoe. what could be going on?

    Wow, very useful. I’ve been restoring a 1955 Evinrude 3hp outboard. I’ve been having issues with the ignition system. And this was perfect timing. One question I have is how do you know which coil goes to which cylinder?
    Actually I have two questions. I’m assuming the coil should not make contact with the flywheel and that there should be a gap between the coil and the flywheel. If so, how do you know when the coil is positioned properly?

    Hi. My friend helped me change out coils, points, condensers and plugs- when we go to put the flywheel back on and try to crank motor it seems to be hanging up on something or wanting to take like the throttle cable or spark plug wires with it? Something seems to be binding? Its a 1968 6 hp johnson- any help would be appreciated! Now we even switch back coils to see if that made a difference- clearance wise. It did not. Thank you
