Thanks for the suggestions, I've kicked the idea around about running it on
a buzz box, but ruins the esthetics for me if ya know what I mean.

Hi Bob,
Well - - - I know nothing about igniters except that everyone seems to
have problems with them.
 
1.) My first suggestion would be to talk to someone like Ted Brookover
who knows more that I ever will.
2.) My other suggestion would be to rig up a wiper on the cam gear and
run it with a buzz coil & battery.
 
But please get more opinions on that.
 
Joe "Pip" Betz said that.
