Clarke Troller Wiring Questions

[kevinrude]

There are 2 single wires (labelled A and B) and 1 wire pair (labelled C1 and C2). See diagram and pictures below.

I have A figured out; that’s just regular spark plug wire.

Is there any requirements on what type of wire I should be using for B (coil to condenser)?

Same question for C1 and C2 (battery to coil), any particular size, kind?

Also, do I have the battery hooked up properly in the diagram? Positive to coil, negative to ground?

Thanks!

Your diagram is missing the points.

A "Boathouse Repair" is one thats done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.

Hmmmmmmmmmmm.

OK, I will take a closer look tonight and redo my sketch.

Thanks.

Here is a picture of T2’s Clarke Troller (I must have downloaded the pictures when he posted them at some point). You can see the wire attached to the condenser, which is then connected to the points. So, my diagram could have been better. Hopefully this picture helps.
