ELECTRONIC IGNITION

The ignition system on the engine uses two Plasma III ignition modules (from Light Speed
Engineering) and a Direct Crank Sensor system with magnets in the ring gear to provide the
triggers for timing. The firing order is 1,3,2,4.
The dual system is connected such that each system knows if the other one is operating. If one
of the two systems is turned off or has failed, the remaining system will automatically shift its
timing curve to provide optimum engine performance with one system. This eliminates the
common power loss when one magneto is turned off. The extremely wide operating voltage
range, from 5v-35v allows hand starting long after the electric starter has stopped due to a low
battery.
