Anyone know how to tell if a Slick mag has impulse coupling or not? I
don't have the prop on yet so I can't turn the engine over and listen for
the tell-tale snap. I'd rather not remove the mag or turn the engine over
with the starter until the airplane is completely finished. Can I get
impulse coupling information from the Mag serial/model numbers or otherwise
figure this out by looking at the mag when installed on the engine? Thanks.

Dear Dean,
If you have two mags (one with-/one without I.C.), then one should stick out further
from the accessory case than the other (normally the left mag) due to the
additional width of an adapterplate/spacer which is necessary for the extra
space needed for the Impulse Coupling. If both are the same distance, then you
either have NO Impulse Coupling, or you have two (but I daubt it!).

On my Cessna, the spacer is about 1/2-3/4" thick and visable between the mag
and the engine case. (look close and compare the two).
The following link has an exploded view of the mag and IC (but does not show
the spacer) https://robertscarbrepair.com/piccategory.asp?id=300
