Excessive R Mag Drop
      
      
      Hi Guys,
      
      My lovely M9F (okay, "Phi", but I don't have that key on this 
      keyboard...<VBG>) magnetos (mounted on a Yak-55M) seem to have developed 
      an issue, and I need some help toubleshooting it. The problem is an 
      excessive mag drop on the right (#2) mag. Mag checks done between 60% 
      and 65% yield a 2.5-2.9% drop on the Left mag (#1) and (initially) a 
      9.5-9.9% drop on the Right (#2). Here is what I have done so far and the 
      effect:
      
      1) Replaced the plugs (NGK BR7HS gapped at 0.25). No effect. N.B., the 
      ignition wires are US 8 mm automotive wires and are just over 18 months old.
      2) Checked the point gap (and cleaned everything in the top of the mag 
      with Isopropanol). Gap correct at 0.3 mm. No effect.
      3) Reset the distributor rotor to full "aft" (i.e., opposite the 
      direction of rotation) position. No effect.
      4) Reset distributor rotor to mid-position. Decreased drop on Right mag 
      to about 8.5%.
      5) Reset distributor rotor to full "forward" position (i.e., in 
      direction of rotation). Decreased drop on Right mag to about 7.7-7.9%.
      
      This is the best that I can get. Obviously, this isn't good enough...
      
      Any ideas on what the problem is and (more importantly to me), what the 
      solution is? Preferably without recourse to "buy a new mag"...
      
      I'm stumped.
      
      Thanks,
      
      Scott Poehlmann
