I removed the button head screw near the sensor and replaced it with a ½ inch long socket head screw. The screw is jammed against the crankcase and is about 1/64 of an inch above the timing ring. I have tried to rotate the ring and dislodge the sensor with an awful lot of force and neither moved. I have also flown one engine like this for about twenty minutes with no issues. I got this method from Bill Cunningham, the founder of CH, a while ago. Has anyone else modified their Brisons this way? Dan.
Bill Carpenter not Cunningham.
