This informative guide is a comprehensive resource on the Bendix and Slick magnetos used in most piston aircraft engines. It covers all important aspects of the ignition system, including the magneto coil, rotor, capacitor, points, P-lead, impulse coupling, and ignition harness. With expert insights from author John Schwaner, you'll learn about key concepts such as "E" gap and internal magneto timing versus magneto-to-engine timing. Discover how altitude, temperature, and maintenance play a role in the performance of your magneto, and find out how to choose the best model for your specific flying needs. Troubleshooting tips and detailed maintenance recommendations are also included, as well as a comprehensive listing and discussion of applicable ADs and service bulletins.

Placed order 11-26-25, finally received 12-30-25. Didn’t know it was a back ordered item. Customer service was helpful but it was frustrating to wait that long.
Item works but the radio plug doesn’t stay in so I had to make a retainer
