Default Ignition sensor for F.P.E mounting advice

It appears that my ignition sensor to my new F.P.E 2.4 is bad and I need to replace it. I have one arriving on wed/Thurs and I need advice on how to install it CORRECTLY. I have already removed the old one from shaft and cleaned up the Aluminum mount. when I glue the sensor in, what type of adhesive is best, etc.

Thanks!!!!!!

I have used 5 minute epoxy for 18 years now, it works well..Make sure the sensor is no more than 1/32 of an inch from the magnet...Most ignitions are set up so that the South pole of the magnet triggers the side of the sensor with the numbers on it...[8D]

Why not simply call Kurt Roth and tell him about it. He will send you another one and tell you how to make it work and attach it.
Always go to the horse's mouth, so to speak.
