Here are the symptoms from last night's test runs after fixing the p-lead problem I found.
First test run: engine ran fin on both mags...no anomolies detected
Second test run: started fine, but a couple of minutes into the run the right mag started violently missing again. digital tach warning light on and off intermittently.
Third test run: right mag basically useless...it would fire occasionally, but if it did it was one or two pops...engine would not run on this mag alone...digital tach warning light continuously illuminated.
This pattern of working when cold, but getting bad in subsequent runs is starting to show as a pattern...could there be a heat component to this?
Any ideas of what to troubleshoot next? Could a mag be failing in that manner or is it likely some place I am not looking? How would temperature play a part in this?
Thanks!
