9000 volts!!

Post by Shane37110 »

That's what an International Harvester H4 magneto puts out! I can attest to it's attention getting power. Was working on my power unit putting the original magneto on after having it rebuilt and once running I was straightening the ignition wires out and found a bad spot on the coil wire.
I think I saw Jesus! Hallelujah there wasn't that scratch fella waiting on me.
Be careful with ignition systems folks!

It is never fun!

DC hurts worse than AC. Most painful time I can remember getting juiced was 10,000 volts from an ignition transformer/igniter on a boiler. Knocked me back up against a wall. Was dazed for a few seconds after that shock.
If there must be trouble, let it be in my day, that my child may have peace.
