Greg, if you change a Bendix mag for a Slick mag I think you will need a
different drive gear, and they ain't cheap. As Oscar said, you might do
better to just rebuild the Bendix.

Subject: Pietenpol-List: Mag needed for an A75
Hello Everyone,
I'm in need of a decent used mag and a harness for an A75-8. I have a
Bendix Scintilla SF4RN-8 that isn't working. The working mag is a Slick
4230, but a 4333 would be great. I haven't had any luck finding one at
Wentworth, Barnstormers, nor eBay. If you know of one, please let me know.

Thanks Oscar. I appreciate the help. Yes, I'm pretty sure the BS is
rebuildable. All the parts are there and nothing is locked up. There is a
fellow in Dallas (Joe) that can rebuild it. He's the only one I've found
that can rebuild them.

Hi Jack. Yes, rebuilding the old Bendix Scintilla is not a bad option.
Joe's ballpark quote to rebuild it is $600-$700. My mechanic thought that
was very high and suggested I search for a good Slick or a newer model
Bendix first. He didn't mention the drive gear nor the wiring harness
replacement costs. I'm hoping to find a good deal, maybe do some trading.
I do have a rebuildable Corvair I'm willing to part with...

Are there overhaul manuals available for Scintilla mags?I overhauled both of my
AM-4 magsand found the manual to be very good. Is it not "legal" to do your own
overhaul as a repairman, (assuming you have that certificate for building the
plane) on an experimental engine? My point is not to sell one-self short before
trying it yourself. If the parts/seals/gaskets are available, it really is
quite simple. What you have now does not work, so you can't really make it worse.
I have two CASE mags that I will someday rebuild...if anyone can point me to a
parts source or overhaul manual for those I would be much obliged.
If God is your co-pilot...switch seats.

Gardiner,
Your friend Glenn Morrow has two working BS mags (same model number as what I
have) plus a complete wiring harness. I'll be sending him payment for that
shortly.
Thanks everyone for your quick response and willingness to help with this!!

I just took a good set off the Cub and replaced them with Slicks to get
shielded wires. I moved the Cub to our Public airport and really have to
start using radios for the traffic pattern to be safe. The engine noise was
light, but is an excuse to buy something for the airplanes. LOL I'll look
at them tonight and let you know exactly what they are.

Greg; we'll find you one. I've put out some feelers and I'm sure a couple
of other Pieters will take a look around their hangars and see what we can
find. Meanwhile, is your dead Bendix Scintilla really dead? They are
rebuildable.

| Subject: | question for Canadians (off topic) |
A theoretical question for any of you who might be able to help me understand the
HST (sales tax). Let's say I buy an airplane from a guy in Ontario. He de-registers
the Canadian-registered aircraft and I bring it to the U.S.
Forget the registration business... what I'm wondering is, when does the HST come
into play? To whom is it paid, and when? If I hand him some money and drive
away with the airplane without any further paperwork or action, will U.S. Customs
ask me for a bill of sale and proof of payment of HST on the purchase?
If a tree falls in the woods and nobody is there to hear it, does it make any
noise? ;o)
Theoretical, purely theoretical. Thanks.

Mike; depending on the series of Case magneto, manuals are to be found on eBay.
Example: manual for a 660 series mag, $93. Parts are something else again though.
I do have a source for magneto repairs, a farm implement outfit in the
Midwest that overhauled a Fairbanks-Morse magneto that I'm going to use on the
UltraVair engine. They may be able to help with parts for these old mags.
