With the springs removed, this magneto will produce a weak spark by giving the armature a quick spin by hand and scratching the lead out wire against my steel bench. I don’t believe it’s enough spark to start or run an engine however. 2″ x 2″ mounting. I believe this is a good candidate for a rebuild. Mounting holes are solid. There is one small crack in the pot metal base next to one of the mounting holes as you can see in the pictures! See pictures for the absolute best description!

Antique Webster K Magneto Stover Parts Hit Miss Engine Weak Spark

Model K Webster magneto. Has the extra roller for a stover engine. Timing lever is not stuck, the little roller is stuck however. The 2″ x 2″ mounting holes have good threads. With the springs removed, and giving the armature a quick spin by hand while scraping the wire against my metal bench a weak spark can be seen. Highly unlikely it’s not enough spark to run a engine. Should be a great candidate for a rebuild or for parts. See pictures for the absolute best description. Will need gone through and fixed up before being put to use!
