Save Old Iron 1,571 #2 Posted October 26, 2012 less cost, much less maintenance and increased reliability - a no brainer Magnum engines in the mid 80's were the largest migration to magnetos. Some 70's models had "electronic" ignitions. A little research and googling can get you additional detail. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
