Ian - you may be confusing the issue a little here. The L2000 is single ignition, so flying to the nearesr airport may not be an option following a mag failure!
In a single ignition engine the mag needs to be inspected also at 250 hours. It is supposed to be possible to change the mag without removing the engine, but don't know how.

A good magneto (especially with a jet of cool air onto case) is TOTALLY reliable and that is what you want. Our Sauer manual says "if magneto fails fly to nearest airport and have it repaired but if electronic ignition fails then flow to your home airfield and repair then" Also I think you would loose your certification with electronic ignition. It might be old technology and heavy but it is reliable That is my thoughts Ian McPhee On 21 June 2011 06:22, Lasse Schmidt <[email protected]> wrote: Hi all! I´m just about to do a 500hr service in my magneto. Whilst looking at this big heavy piece of sparklemachine the idea stuck me that it would be more fun to use electronic ignition. Is there any available for the Limbach L2000? Also - is there any easy way to remove the magneto or does the engine have to be removed? Thanks!
