I got my rebuilt mag back today. I put it on my 28 JD D. I hooked up my spark plugs to view the spark. I turned it over and when the LH Spark Retard on the flywheel lined up with the mark on the housing, my number one plug sparked. I turned it to near LH Exhaust open and number two spark.
So that is okay. I put a little bit of gas in number two plug hole, put plug in. I have not put number one in yet, turn it over and when sparked it backfired and a flame shot out of the number one hole.
I decided to put number one in, turn it over and bam,another loud crack and a very impressive flame out the exhaust.
Scared the crab out of me!
What am I doing wrong?
