Spark question....think I found a prob, need openion.

Ok, please dont flame because I know I didn't search long enough..but do you know how many threads there are on "spark". My questions a little different than no spark.


I, for the first time decided to pull both lead wires and watch them spark while I turn the CAS by hand, I get spark, BUT...at the same time?

I have a long mechanics background, but I'm no expert at rotaries (decent though). Shouldn't the Leads 1 and 2 spark 1 then 2, not at the same time? The trailing sparks this way as every other type of engine does. Think my igniter is toast?

Thanks for help in advance.

Exactly..What Roy Said..that is why when you Hook up your Plug wires,It doesn't matter about Sequence on the Leading Wires.you can mix up L1 and L2 ..BUT Trailing is Different..You have to put T1 to T1 and T2 to T2..or you will be firing out of order..It wil buck like a SonofaGun!
