Hi Paul,

Thanks for the info.  I had no trouble loosening the nuts to remove the 
magneto.  In my case, I couldn't move the mag far enough forward to get it 
free of the engine.  It hit the air intake pipe while the aft gear was still 
inside the engine case.  Next time (another 5 years?), I'll try harder to 
find a way to get it free.

I have Plasma III electronic ignition coils mounted on the engine 
centerline, somewhat in front of the one magneto, and maybe that's why I had 
to remove the air intake pipe and you didn't?

Thanks,
Dennis

Dennis: I did both mags without removing anything except some plug wire 
bundles.   It took a universal joint or two, 1/4 inch drives and a long 
extension but it was possible without removing the intake.
