[QUOTE="BigEd, post: 81674, member: 161"] Some people have found a cure for erratic running by removing the kill wire others like Robert and myself have no problems with the kill wire clipped with the HT leads. (Mine has been routed together with the HT leads since I built my Rapide, 40,000 + miles ago and counting.) The kill wire is not essential so if you think it might be causing a problem snip it off leaving a short (well insulated) piece so you can restore the kill wire if that is not the cause of a problem. If earthing might be causing a problem Davidd's photograph of his magneto shows how simple it is to put on a good earth. Most things electrical work better with a good earth. [/QUOTE]
