Nova 2 ignition

[Mine19821 158]

Has anyone used this nova 2 system? How are you mounting them? I tried one on my 725 because i believed it had a condenser going bad and it fixed the issues. Also put one on my b10 that i believed had a carburetor problem at first and it ran better than it ever had. So far pretty impressed with them.

I have one on an ancient rototiller with a tiny (2-3hp) B&S. Wiring was dead simple except ... the spade connectors aren't reversible; they work one way but not the other. For that reason, I mounted mine on the outside tin. Works Great!

I plan to leave mine outside. Going to convert all my mag systems at some point.

I have 2 landlord2110's, one has the nova, the other doesn't-YET. It' the best thing I did, putting this on. I was constantly cleaning & adjusting points before nova2. I have  had no problems since installation in 2010. I had to adjust spark pug gap cause of spark knock. You'll never look back.

What would you recommend for a gap?

I have used three of these on old Stihl chainsaws where you can't get points and condensers any longer. Absolutely no problems with the spark since installation. I would use them anytime I can.

Two 10 horse Kohler K series, 1 10 horse, 1 12 horse and 1 16 horse cast iron Briggs. I guess I have 5 installed. Great product.

You had room to mount these modules inside the original saw case without issue?  Did you need to remove any components? 

[Richard Wright 79]

On big old chainsaws there's usually some room inside the case to mount them where the points used to be, but on a Stihl 015 there was no room in the case so I had to mount the unit on the outside and run the wire inside.  It still works fine.

My NovaII installed on a Bumblebee 10. Has its quirks but starts every time (battery is up) and fires like its supposed to. I have an ample supply of new points and condensers on the shelf as well but NovaII requires no adjustment.

Haven’t figured out how yet. The one on my 725 i zip tied to the carburetor.
