[SEL] No spark in the JD magneto

[Dave Otto]

Hi Jeff

Yes the keeper will work but it shouldn't be a problem to put the whole mag
in the charger.

Thanks to all for your responses regarding my John Deere . I was hoping 
for a simple cure but I guess right from the get go I knew I would have 
to have the mag recharged. BTW, I have timed the mag to the impulse 
point using the pin at the back of the mag. I now have to find someone 
around my neck of the woods who can recharge the mag magnet in situ 
rather than off the mag itself. I have seen on the Net where someone 
charged a Webster magnet off the mag itself and put a keeper bar in 
place on the side of the magnet while the magnet was placed down into 
its place on the actual mag. The keeper bar was slid up while the magnet 
was pushed home. Anyone tried that with the JD mag. If  Vic is listening 
in to this thread, please send me an email or phone if you are still in 
the country. I'll try to call sometime this week regardless to see if 
you have charged a JD before.  Jeff  Allen
