Default Evolution type 2 ignition

OK, Besides the people who were fooled into thinking a 6.0 Cell pack would have enough power to run their ignition, who has had ignition trouble that was the fault of the ignition? I bought a new Evolution 58 and the ignition was bad out of the box. When I turned on the switch it would buzz and spark, but then when I tried to start it it failed to spark again. I replaced it with a friend's ignition and it started first flip. I contacted Horizon and they said they would replace it. I returned it to Horizon,postage paid, to be "Evaluated" and now they are out of stock until Mid December. These engines are Great, but I'm not sold on their ignitions. Incidentally, a friend and I both had to turn our high speed needles out almost a full turn to get the ignition to throttle up. Also just for curiosity who is running the auto choke feature?
