A 1923/1927 Witte (pronounced Whitty) I have seen many points fired engines I have a 1/8 scale late 1800's Olds handy man engine hit and miss it will run all day if it is feeling good!!!!!!!!
How ever older and bigger engine sometimes run better with a buzz coil. I would like to make a FAUX magneto using modern tech and make it look like the real thing. Fouling of plugs and oil (they use drip oilers) can and will foul plugs depending on the moon phase, if your karma is just right, or for any other reason?
With a buzz coil fired engine in a pinch I'll bet it would run on shredded paper !!!!
Hope some one can find a circuit that will give a buzz coil spark on a coil, mag out of a weed whacker, or COP. As I said I saw one but owner would not share!!!!
Remember the CD ignitions? They used a high freq spark at higher voltage and would work great. I still have one but I want a FAUX mag to do the same.
