circuit or circuits; the gaps are enclosed in a case with a glass top or cover & fixed on the dash board. Should a plug get fouled or the magneto fail it is indicated instantly. This device is useful for aero engines or any type of ignition. Enclosed is a sketch of a six cylinder type of indicating box. A reply in any case will be appreciated. Thanking you. Believe me. Yours Faithfully, Frederick W. Conway | ||
