Recharge Caille magnets

[Hugh Long]

The magnets seem to be a bit weak on this one. Can this be recharged? I will most likely put it all together and see if the spark is better than before. I checked everything else and cleaned the points. Just want to know if this type can be recharged if I need it.

Yes they can be but give it a chance
to see if the really need to be recharged.
As a magneto generates more power the faster it spins
if it starts easily there OK. If it is hard starting or you
can’t get it started recharging may help.
As generating electricity would be similar too
the recharging possess I suspect that if you can get
them running they will recharge themselves

A "Boathouse Repair" is one thats done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.

O K Tubs, I plan on having it all done in a week or two, except for painting the tank, that always take me a while.

I’d be glad to charge them for ya
but were 1801 miles apart.
If it was only 1800 miles. 🙄

That is a bit far. I am hoping that the compression comes up a little. Can’t check it because of the hole size, but it didn’t feel too strong. I found both rings stuck on about 1/2 of the piston. Everything cleaned up and working free now.
