Hello all: Our cousin inherited a 1957? D7 17A and serviced the magneto . Does anyone in cyberland have an image from the manual that shows how to time the magneto to the tractor ? Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
There's a little more information on the next page, I'm having trouble uploading pictures though. It is in the tech library also if you can navigate your way to find it.
I have 17A1176 with a Bosch MJK Mag and it only goes on one way so if it doesn't start I just switch the wires on the plugs. Good Luck
The magneto Bosch MJK on D7 17A is instaled verticalement and he is counterclock wise working
