Hello ALL.
I think i should have stuck to Flight Simulators, Having just purchased G-PEGY
Mag drop on left mag, top row sparking plugs ,
Have 2 new caps, so tried 2 a side in turn, No Change in mag drop.
Started engine , run on left mag only, with Front top right lead off, engine
sounded
the same so think its this one is the problem.
All the bloody top plug leads go to the bottom side of the mag, ie (the
electronic
unit), So you can,t get to them to un screw the leads.
The complete unit is mounted on rubber cotton real, 3 of them, one at the back
and two at the front.
You can-not get a spanner on them, i have tried all ways, purchased cranked
spanners
and ground it down to slip over nut , no good.
Finally i have managed to release the rear back mag mount and the inboard front
cotton reals mount.
The outboard front rubber cotton real mount ,again no spanner will go in,
This rubber mounting fits over a cast stud which is part of the inlet housing.
Now i don,t know if the cotton real is just pushed over this stud pin, and has
over the years corroded alloy and steel together, so NOW it won,t pull off.
Or if it is held with this inside bolt which i cannot get to.
Will put some grips on the real and give it a wriggle see if it moves.
Once this is released i can do the 59 second job of screwing the new leads on.
Just hope i can release it tomorrow .
Has any body done this job before, Help
Regards
Alan
