    Rachel I like the way your Dad steps in behind the scenes when you come to a tough spot I know sometimes four to six hands works better than two thanks for keeping old farming machines from the scrap yard I like it when someone comes up to me and says what the heck is that I tell them with out this machinery we wouldn’t be where we are today thanks for you and your Dad for keeping it going or running as good or better than new enjoy your channel

    Thsnks Rachel! It is good to know that parts are available for the WICO mags. I run pre 1970 Gravely tractors that use either WICO or Fairbanks Morse single plug mags,. The WICO mag for the Gravely s nearly identical to the one you rebuilt on the Deere. Mine has the stop button like you installed. A cautionary user tip. If you are shutting down the engine using the button hold it in firmly until the engine comes to a complete stop. I released the button once or twice when the engine was still spinning. The exhaust manifold and muffler were full of unburned fuel and air. When I released the button the spark plug fired again and nearly blew the muffler apart. The stop button is a great idea it just has to be used right.

      I see that more frequently when people don't idle down. But they are also the owners that don't have that situational awareness to make sure spark remains grounded until the engine fully stops because they are impatient... because the engine was not at idle and takes longer to stop rotating.

The cap is in excellent condition so if I can just free up the spark plugs and replace only that I’d be happy!! 😄

    Ring at quail spring into that keeper is a lot like what I did for about 20 years in clock repair putting big powerful springs into spring barrels by hand. They also make a special tool for putting springs into spring barrels but we never use them.
    The springs that we hand wound into spring barrels were about ¾ in wide and about 4-6 ft long.

  • @daveholt248

    Thanks, great video. I have a WICO Model XH1343
    Serial 594837. It’s on a Wisconsin 4 Cyl. I have a very difficult time trying to start it. Crank start. It will “pop” just enough to tease you to keep trying! I was talked into converting to a chip electronic ignition. I installed that, but NO significant change. I finally got it to run after much persistence.
    Split wood for 3hrs. Next day wouldn’t start.
    I installed 4ea in line spark plug testers, one for each plug. I finally got it to start again and am only getting spark to the left two cylinders. Runs great though. Plugs are new and gapped per the manual. Assuming plug wires/cap connections, I swapped to different plug wires and cleaned the cap and rotor, etc.
    After finally getting it started the same results. Only the left two cylinders are firing!
    Any suggestions?
    Do you sell a WICO CAP for this 4 cylinder magneto? I’m waiting on another condenser to arrive and will go back to the original magneto set up. Perhaps the “chip” only runs two plugs?

  • @craigdeloach3976

    im trying to put the magneto impulse coil spring back together in my dads 41 model LA. The backside where the inner washer with the groove to hold the end of the spring looks different from this. Its a Wico model X (XH-909) The washer has mulpile grooves around the outer edge. I had to take off the gear so I could spin it up with a drill to see if I had spark. And I did have spark,but nothing going out to the plugs. Cap.rotor btw my rotor only has one arm on it) points & condenser are all new. Still no spark. Next up is wires...I hope i can make some progress!

    I love your tractor videos, not to be nit picking but at 9:20 in the video you performed a procedure that may not be acceptable. When driving that bearing you must use a socket or tool that interfaces the OUTER Bearing carrier so as to not damage the race. What I saw was a tool hammering on the inner race.
