Yesterday I designed and cut new gaskets for the magneto using Make The Cut and the Cricut.
The cover gasket is two layers of a thin material stuck together with the elmer's spray adhesive used to hold the material to the cutting mat. Cutting was optimal speed, 2 passes, medium pressure. I have found that higher pressure tends to get the registration off. Need to look into that.
This is the gasket between the magneto and the engine. It is cut from 0.033 gasket stock. Cutting was one setting below optimal speed, 14 passes in 2 sessions, and medium pressure.
Next step is to take the bad one off and replace it with this. Need to set the timing according to the AENL manual.
Did a wet compression test and reads 120 lbs not a bad number. I am confused. Need to recheck the spark.
