JM magneto rubber shroud
This is quite interesting. Recently received this magneto plate from England (thank Martin). Interesting rubber shroud at the HT connection position. Effective in keeping water out. Provenance unknown, no JM number. Anyone seen this before?

Re: JM magneto rubber shroud
Could be a marston thing. I have 5 SD JM magnetos and this is the first I've seen of it.

I have had 2 SDs with it
You can just see it in this picture.
And see it perfectly in this other SD picture.

Re: JM magneto rubber shroud
The only thing I can see in the wartime parts book is the felt washer between the Bakerlite HT lead end & the base plate.
Make it idiot proof and someone will make a better idiot.
