Our 1928 Chummy went "tinkle tinkle bang" this week during a run round the block. I have now discovered that all of the teeth are missing from the smaller of the 2 spur gears in the magneto, so the distributor stopped rotating!
Has anyone overcome this before please or do I just need to find a replacement magneto? Interestingly, the spare that came with the car has the same problem.
We are wanting to keep things original if possible so, at this point are not considering a coil conversion.
We would also be grateful for any advice on who else to talk to please.
Many thanks.
