Anyone have any advice on fault finding a dead magneto on a Centurion Meteor engine, I have one dead Centurion & no workshop manuals, wiring diagrams etc..... neither left or right banks have spark, vehicle was running ok then just lost power & stopped. Any assistance or advice appreciated.

Rob..
Who makes the magnetos???
Scintilla-Bendix mags are timed to the engine in the full advance position...
Bosch mags are timed to the engine in the full retarded position...
I could give you the specs if I knew what type they were..
