J4 Magneto / Electric system

Postby KC2LLW » Mon Oct 02, 2017 6:33 am

Hello,
I have a 1948 Cub with a J4 Magneto. It is a 6volt Positive ground electrical system with a generator. Is the electrical system totally independent from the ignition system? It appears it is but would like to confirm.
Thank you,
Steve

Yes, the mag generates it's own current, it doesn't need the 6v. system to run.
