Magneto Question

I am trying to fix a Minneapolis-Moline JTU to run, It has a Waukesha engine.
The magnet on the Original Fairbanks RV4B magneto is dead. I have tried to start it on a Fairbanks FMJ but all I get is a pop every now and then. My manual only shows only how to set the static timing (At top dead center), but not the run timing.

Can I install the RV4B impulse on the FMJ to be sure I am getting the correct spark advance?

If you don't know, can you suggest someone I could check with?
Thanks!
Kelvin

Your tractor should run fine on the fmj mag.Did you time the rotor inside the mag?Does the impulse snap on the fmj at tdc or just after?Try the moline board.
