so, Japanese weeds are different from American weeds?

Thanks, that's the idea. But I was looking for the home built circuit.

All I did was google for "electronic ignition circuit" This one is
battery operated. All the home made ones I seen use a battery.

Yeah, me too. Not much good on a lawnmower.
I thought I had the other one saved on my computer, but I can't find
it.

Ron- I have used the ones you can buy for about 10 bucks. Some in
plastic cases and others in metal cases. They all worked perfectly.
Interestingly, B&S used some kind of coil in their electronic ignition
to sense the magnet on the flywheel. And these ignitions were not that
reliable. The ones you buy must sense the voltage build up and fire
then. In a magneto ignition system the magnet needs to be passing the
coil when the points open to get a good spark. I don't know how the
retrofit systems know exactly when to fire. Different magnetos will
have different voltages. The first ones I saw had to be bought for the
right engine but the last one I bought said it would work on any
engine. And it worked on a B&S, Tecumseh, and a japanese made
weedwhacker motor.
