Magneto Repairs

Have got two BTH Mags generating weak sparks, engine starts on motor but not on handle as a consequence. Can anyone recommend a Magneto specialist preferably in SE/ on the South Coast ? I contacted David Lindsley but apparently he only does motorcycle ones. Didn't know that there was much difference. Look forward to any help, last time I had one re-built it was by Tony Stairs in London area but not sure he's still doing them.

I had a first class work on mine (french SEV) done by bill@brightsparkmagnetos.com.
He's in Normandy but works with the british mother company brightsparkmagnetos.com
Highly recommended

Re: Magneto Repairs

Renaud's recommendation absolutely seconded. Very efficient service. Was given an early assessment of problems and work to be undertaken, was kept informed of progress and 'involved' in decision making etc. Top man, Bill...

Re: Magneto Repairs

Thanks once again for all your recommendations. I will probably get in touch with Tony holder as he's my most local but the last two entries 'backing the same horse' so to speak, seem particularly tempting, especially as it's really no big deal sending even heavy and delicate things now.

Any insurance you buy with most delivery services will probably be useless.
Be careful.

I have had 1 magneto done by Tony Holder and was informed he was retiring. He recommended Steve Marks at www.themagnetoguys.co.uk and I have had a further 3 done by Steve and am quite satisfied regards Russell
