Hi Todd
The reason for my running the cable from rear cockpit is simply the length
of the cable. Since it is originally a marine cable, I could't find
anything short enough for the front cockpit. Later on when I visited Ben
Charvet, I found out he did the same with a different reason: Flying the
aircraft from the rear seat, he did not want any extra linkages and joins
in the way. To me a very very logical argument.
Cheers

Trying to get my rebuilt C-85 running using the rebuilt Eisemann mags that came
with it. Was able to get the spark plug wires from ACS, but cant find any p leads
for them. Any ideas?

Can you just make them? Im not familiar with Eisemann mags but typical p-leads
are just a length of shielded wire with ring terminals attached to the wire and
the shield.

They have a cap and lm guessing a rigid section that makes a solid contact inside
the mag like a Bendix. Ive tried the Bendix leads, but the cap wont fit.

Gotcha. Do you know the diameter of the cap size you need?

Semih; so are you just visiting in the states, or have you moved here now? Your
signature line says you're building in Istanbul but staying here in Orlando...
