You first gotta figure out just what ignition is on her. If its a Magneto, they are self powered requiring no battery connection, it may be a Wico Model X or C or an AP or a Fairbanks Morse??? They also used a Wico XB battery powered distributor on some B's that resemble the Wico X Mag from the outside but theyre battery powered internal coil distributors NOT mags and the points are hidden under a plate. Do you mean it has an external regular looking coil??? Sometimes the Mags were converted to battery powered distributors by using an external battery n switch fed coil and using the old mags points. Are there switch fed ignition power wires to the ignition unit or coil?? If its a mag instead of a battery powered coil ignition, they make a loud sharp SNAP as the flywheels cranked over, yours do that??? The battery powered coil ignitions or Wico XB ignitions DO NOT make any such snap. Look it over for model numbers etc and let me know what you find plus answer some of my questions n maybe we can finger her out. John T
