      What kind of magneto is this on a Wisconsin RBM?
      I can’t quite make it out.
      Thanks.

          Thanks Stanley!
          Looks like Elkhart magneto’s are rarer than the proverbial "hens teeth".
          This model N Wisconsin outboard, also listed as having a magneto,
          appears to have something homemade? (from Jack Craib’s web site)
          If so, is it a distributor, rather than a magneto?
          I acquired a Model M ( I think) Wisconsin outboard today,
          and naturally missing the Elkhart magneto.
          I read that they had a lot of "pot" metal in them, so it
          probably crumbled away.
          Has anyone found a replace mag for these motors?
          Thanks!
