    Great explanation Vic! One extra question: when wiring the p-leads, what gauge single shielded wire is typically used?

    Use at least 20 AWG shielded Tefzel wire. Some people use 22 AWG, but I find it breaks more easily in the higher vibration environment of the engine compartment.

    Do you remove the jumper from the ignition switch if you swap the NON-impulse coupled mag out for a P-mag? Ie: I have a standard mag with impulse coupler on Left, and installing a P-Mag on Right.

    Disregard - I’ve found in the e-Mag instructions that you DO need to remove the jumper in the ignition switch.

    Vic, what does the inside of an ignition switch look like ? I’m intrigued as to how the switch mechanism links up the various terminals within the switch . Have you anything that may help? Thks! Andrew ( Hong Kong )

    Do Bendix / TCM mags need to be pinned? Or do you simply match the red marks with the black one inside the sight hole?

    You can do either.

    My RV-10 IO 540 came from Vans with two non impulse magnetos fitted. I assume this will be ok? Haven’t run it yet.

    you need to make sure you use a Slickstart with one of them. I think it is detailed in the plans. or you could add one electronic ignition system in place of one of the mags. it likely will not start with just 2 non-impulse mags without the Slickstart.
