Right, 1'st thing ! Is that tach wire in any way hooked up the magneto grounding post ? That has the black bakelite screw sticking out the side of the magneto. It is only to be used as a grounding wire. NO OTHER WRES MUST BE ATTACHED TO IT !!!! AS IT WILL BURN OUT THE MAGNETO.
Because what your describing is that the magneto is overheating and is beginning to break down. The grounding post wire should go through a toggle switch 10 amp in the wire and it should go straight to ground flicking the switch to close turns off your engine. For your speedo you need a seperate magnetic pickup, they are available from Magsaurus. You will probably need to get your mag checked out for damage.Last edited by southerner; 07-04-2006 at 01:40 AM.
