Jaka,
It doesnt look like either of those. But it does say 4.8v, the 4 is covered up by the zip tie. Also my post clearly said use a clunker on the Fuel DOT line. I decided to just use a longer brass tube and bend it 65 degrees facing the bottom of the tank instead of the clunker.

ORIGINAL: jaka

Hi!
If Horizon only could use the same name for their engines the rest of the world use, MVVS!

I assume you have the older ignition that looks like this, new to the left.
The older Vlach ignition system runs on 4,8V-6V.
The new one 6-8,4V.

Of course you must use a clunk in the tank! How could the engine/carb otherwise get fuel???
Good news is I got her started this afternoon. I just need somoene to hold the plane while I do the fine tune adjustments. Hopefully will have her in the air by Saturday. Thanks again for all those that helped out.
