I restored 5 or 6 Standardtwin garden tractors back in the 1970's. They all had mags and would start easily when hand cranking. I also had a Viking I bought in 1960 and I had a problem with the mag and I took in where I worked as they had a machine for testing mags made in Germany. This was before the Army switched to diesel engines in everything. Some of those gas tank engines had 4 mags.
They put my old mag on the machine and said the coil was weak. The man doing the testing reached under the bench and took out a coil and started grinding on it to fit. I said won't that ruin the coil and he said if it does we have plenty more coils. That man had a 1937 Lincoln car with a V12 engine. His son replaced me when I retired and he still has that car. I would hate to buy gas for it. Hal PS: I always removed the mag when I was finished with the tractor and kept it in where it was dry. I marked the mag with finger nail polish so it was always in time when I reinstalled it.
