[AT] conventional or electronic ignition

[Cecil Bearden]

I thought about that, It had some NGK plugs in it that crossed over to a D-8 
Champion.  I put in D-16's that I robbed from my poor little wisconsin 2 
cyl's and had to rob another 2 this last time.   I will have to special 
order something hotter than a D-16
