Hi Tractor Guys: Have a Fairbanks Morse mag. from a small 1 cyl. eng. It has very weak spark. Even after cleaning all electrical connections and filing the points the spark will jump only the thickness of a post card. The impulse mech. works fine. How do I trouble shoot the problem? Are there magnets that get weak? How do I check the coil. The coil seems muchy and soft, I think gas has seeped over the mag. since the carb is directly above it. Could this be the problem. Any ideas or do you just send them off to get repaired somewhere. Seems most the magneto shops in my area are gone. So are the old timers who were smart enough to repair them. It's sad, but can you give me some advice. Thanks Bill
