Yeah but when it does he could knock engines out by the dozen  :D

Can any modern ignition coil, etc. be used to spark this kind of engine?  The magneto is from the period, but for demos and shows, could I substitute a more efficient, compact, easier to conceal system, to fire the engine?


@Tom:  You got mail.
