Hi guys,

Does anyone have pictures of how you ran the magneto wires to the plugs?  I'm interested specifically in how you supported the wires where they cross behind the engine.  There's a lot of stuff back there to chafe on.
Thanks,
David

It will be pretty different depending on all of the specifics of
your install, like plug wire brand, number of mags, and all
of that. But, in general, you can run them thru adel clamps
hung from various things such as accessory case bolts, the
engine mount, or anything else secure. One tip that I do have
though is that even though you can bundle the 3 plug wires into
an adel clamp, I did find that just the very slight movement
between the cable and the clamp eventually wore the outer
rubber coating off and started to polish the plug wire braid
into the copper. What I've started doing is getting the
wires in place, and then inject red RTV into the gaps, so there
won't be any movement of the wires once they are in place,
relative to the clamp or eachother. That's eliminated the
chafing.
