I have an need to disable one side of a dual magneto for my project. 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
	
		 
		
	
	
	Essentially I am installing a Electroair system to fire one set of plugs and retaining the magneto to fire the second. My initial plan was to find a single mag to replace the dual but apparently the nature of the gearing that drives this Dual Magneto makes it impossible to replace it with a single mag. Therefore I will only be using one side of the Dual Magneto. I'm wondering the BEST way to neutralize the non-used side of the magneto. I could: #1 simply ground the P-Lead Is there any reason this is a Bad idea? #2 Remove one coil and/or set of points and/or distributer gear - will removing the coil leave the mag "Unbalanced" in any manner, Magnetically Physically or otherwise? I know that having a magnet and coil means that I am creating electrons, I am just wondering the best way to neutralize them? Thanks in advance doug  |
