In other posts I have seen the warning against using carbon core wires with a magneto.
I have an Allis B with copper core wires and an FMJ mag. I also have a WC with carbon core and an FMJ mag. Both tractors are hand start and will start easily when I put enough fuel in them. I usually only run them for about an hour once a year.
1. Am I damaging the WC's mag with the carbon wires?
2. Why are carbon core wires bad for magnetos (technical explanation please)?
