Default Ignition switch settings

On my "larger Continental" the left mag fires top plugs on left side and
bottom plugs on right side. Vice versa for right mag.

No, that's what I meant. On the Lycoming the left mag fires the
bottom left-side plugs and right top-side plugs. The RH mag fires the
top LH and bottom RH plugs. Continental's smaller engines have the
mags firing all the top or all the bottom plugs, and the larger
engines are arranged like Lycomings.
