RE: Propeller Gaps & Timing!



Original poster: "Lau, Gary" <Gary.Lau@xxxxxx>

With my 15/60 NST, I found that a .04uF cap was optimal (largest bang
size).  Using a smaller cap, the voltages were correspondingly higher,
so your using a larger cap (.07-.08) will reduce the voltages and
prevent the safety gaps from firing.  Probably not what you wanted to
hear, sorry!
