Title: Motoplat magnet stength?
Post by: Gippslander on June 27, 2011, 03:52:56 pm

Do all of the magnets in a Motorplat rotor (73 CR250 Husky) have the same strength?
Only one of the magnets has a good strong "hold" on a 13 mm spanner, the others are really weak.
What's normal?

Hi,
    I tried the magnetism on one of my Bully Motoplats today and found that all the magnets (for charge coils) would just hold a 6mm nut (when flywheel is upside down) and the one next to the timing pin hole was really strong,which I guess is for the trigger coil.
