DANG! I hope you can find that gremlin get the motor sorted out and back to smooth operation, Lane!
I must say that I never had an issue with the Kadrons or the stock ignition on my 1835 in the nearly 100,000 miles I logged on that engine (with off-the-shelf-whatever-is-on-sale 30 wt oil). The only problem I had was a broken throttle cable on a 200 mile cruise. Without a spare, I was able to MacGuyver a fix with some shoelaces I found on the roadside...
…and made it the remaining 100 miles home without a hitch.
I know what you're all thinking…that MUSBJIM is such a dick!!!
