Wico Series 'A' Magneto
Does anyone have a working Wico 'A' magneto the wish to sell?
Despite the coils showing good readings and having replaced the condenser mine refuses to produce a spark

Don't have one to hand myself but a Model Number would be useful to others.
That said, if the coils are good my first port of call would be to check the condenser - even new ones can be duff.
Also check for a short somewhere around the points or cut-out button

The electrical points connector must have moved as I was tightening up the connection and was touching the case. It now sparks like a good'un ......should have gone to Specsavers!!!!!
