[QUOTE="greg brillus, post: 77586, member: 597"] There are no parts in there to worry about other than the shaft which looks similar to a rotor arm with a magnet on the end of it, simply rotate the engine over if it is in the way. I would not disturb this arm at all for obvious reasons, and the only slight tricky bit is where the small grommet at the rear where the wires come out for the HT Coil/s and the kill wire ....This sits in a groove in the cap which is held on by two metric cap screws, not too hard to do. The mags are well made but I don't think they have ever been completely water proof. The issue we have here is moisture from our hot humid climate in Summer, but any engine part that gets hot and has cavities of some form in it, will attract some form of moisture as it cools down.......Like our oil tanks...........:) [/QUOTE]
