d6 9u mag troubles

bcguide · Aug 9, 2016

Hi all
I just bought a d6 9u and am having trouble getting the pup motor to fire. I am not getting any spark out of the mag. So far I have set the point gap to 016 but still nothing so any tips would be great The mag is a wic model x
Another pboblem is there is bit of anifreeze coming out of one the pup cylinders when i open the petcock.
Thank
Scott

Make sure if your magneto is clockwise and on these d6-9u should have a AMERICAN BOSCH mag on and for a bit antifreeze you maybe just need torque the head

Magnetos need good points that make a near perfect connection. You might need a new set and clean them with brown paper before installing them.

Thanks I should have some time to spend on it this week.
Does anyone know the torques for the pup head bolts?
One more question, I think the cat has the mounting holes to put an electric start one the main motor what exactly do i need to make it work

The head torque is 80 pound feet and for a electric startor you need to change wiring,alternator,battery,glow plug and more.

ok I cleaned and gapped the points and dried out inside the mag and got it working, cleaned the carb and it runs.
It still leaks from the cylinder so I pulled the head and am pretty sure the the head gasket is the culpret.
