Big thanks chaps. Ordered IGN system from Apache Aviation Wed. Arrived to day, fitted in 1/2HR
works perfect. Thats saves me about £100 compared to a Tony Clark one.
Thanks.BB

Thanks chaps I'llgive them a try.

Is there an alternetive IGN. sysytem for the Z20. A replacement costs £130 , that's more than halfe the price of a new engine.Wondering if there is a cheaper one that works. Symptoms of mine. After storing for the winter I attempted to run the engine. It will not start by hand. It will run at speed ...

The difference between 13mm dia and 15mm may seem small but the area difference is 25% 15mm dia is 25%larger in area than 13mmdia.

Thanks for that John.

Thanks Andrew, yes , we obtained the champ in1965 ish. The fus was all steel tube constution. The engine was ,i think, a continental
flat four cylinder. Info. probably of no use.

Hi Arthur. There is a brand of silicon tube suitable to gas engines. I was looking at some just recently in Hobby Stores Beeston Notts .They do mail order.
