I am looking for a mag to put on a 2180 VW engine I have for the mouse trap.
I could buy a rebuilt one , but I would really like to find one reasonably
priced. Please email me off net so we can keep the traffic down.

A KR builder in Australia, needs a REV Master Magneto- He lost his KR in a 
Hanger fire with 40 hours on the clock, they dragged the engine out with and 
damaged the Mag.
He is going to start building again soon.

The magneto numbers  Bendix D4RN-3000  ( Mag No. 10-68255512)   or Dual Mag 
3000 series.

KR> Magneto and engine starting

2008-10-12 Thread J Milland
Without  impulse coupling or something like it,  a mag can be a bear  
to start. The old Jacob round engines got around this by having a mag  
and a distributor. You started the engine on the distributor (just  
like your car prior to the modern electronic ignitions) and then  
added the mag.  I suspect that you could have both the mag and the  
distributor on when starting but I was taught the other way.

KR>Magneto point gap settimg

2008-10-12 Thread Brian G. Douglas
Hi all Kr netters
  I have a revmaster 2100 in my KR,  I just did a top overhaul and now (or
before I bought it) cannot get a spark out of the magneto.  Long story
short, what is the gap for the magneto points??  I removed the mag after I
could not get a spark thinking that the mag was bad.  This was after much
troubleshooting.  I was playing with it in my hand after removal and got
shocked.  I know that a CDI would be the best replacement but. just to
d expensive
  Sugestions??
Thanks

> __Hi Brian,  You don't say how long the mag's been out of service  I
bought a Revmaster that had been in its box for 10 yrs, the mag points had
scaled up to a significant degree but I didn't see it at first ,when  I
chipped the scale off, she fired up like a good'un .The gap should be .016"
according to my Bendix manuel.  Good luck,Mac   KR G-BVZJ
