Slick start
Several weeks ago I commented that any day I didn’t learn something new was a wasted day. Out of necessity today I learned how Slick Start works, to trouble shoot it and wire it.
So the day turned out to be a winner.
I was asked by the owner of an Experimental Laser to time his left mag he had taken loose but not removed. 10 minute job right. WRONG. With the mag in place, the right mag at 25* BTDC the left could only be set about +-2.0 degrees on either side of TDC. The original start switch had been replaced with 2 SPST toggles and a start button to activate the start solenoid. While watching the Indy 500 I think I got it sorted out. Tomorrow will tell.
The mag is a Bendix S4LN-200. Never ran into one of those dual point babies before either. I guess you shower of spark guys are familiar with these.
