[SEL] Mica tubing and washers wanted

[Edd Payne]

Are you sure you used Teflon?.Over the years I have built over 100 ignitors 
for customers here and have never had one return.All were fitted with 
Teflon.I have about 70 low tension engines and all are fitted with Teflon 
insulation.My 6HP and 10HP Famous engines are throttle gov and I run them 
all the time and at shows they are started in the morning and run non stop 
all day.The 6HP is fitted with battery and Autosparker and the 10 is Webster 
equipped.Neither have ever failed in any way through ignition problems.Also 
all my Mogul ignitors are fitted with teflon and they run real hot,my 6HP is 
used to cut our fire wood and is used at full working speed and has never 
failed in 5 winters of cutting wood.
