[QUOTE="Jez Nemeth, post: 156820, member: 3871"] Got a 14mm chainsaw decomp on a cable fitted through second plug hole (nice to retain the original lever), rubber non-suppression plug cap too. So it's down to kick technique and that spark. You're totally right Norman, would need to get any parts accurately machined by an expert -mine is a very inaccurate 20's Drummond round bed... presently have the BTH FM1C electro-ignition and a KF1 Lucas (without adt/fibre wheel) -both fully functional. The electrical system is Alton -12v negative earth. One point raised that has been a consideration in the back of my head -advance/retard degrees and the longer stroke, if fitting a newer system this may not be an issue, stroke is an 1" longer than standard -easy check on degree wheel from TDC.
