    Joe if you do not have a impulse coupler on the right mag this must be off for starting. I would use a simple on off switch for each mag and a separate start button. Or a standard key operated mag selector switch with start position Clive On 4 Feb 2016 19:11, "user9253" <fransew@gmail.com> wrote: > > Here is minor modification to the mag switch wiring in Z-11.

    > if you do not have a impulse coupler on the right mag this must be off for starting. Yes, the right mag is off for starting. Notice the bottom half of the right switch. Whenever the switch is not in the center position, the right mag is off. And the switch must be moved off center to start the engine. I agree that a key operated starter is the safest. This circuit is not for me. I drew this circuit at the request (quoted below) of someone who posted on VansAirforce. > If I was to use 2 toggle switches (left mag switch would have momentary position for starter) for my magnetos, how could I wire it so that it would operate like a keyed ignition switch, i.e., shut the right mag down during start, but automatically come online after I release the starter? -------- Joe Gores Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=452629#452629
