I can't seem to find this anywhere on the forum so here goes. I have a Slick Magneto model 4313 with impulse coupling installed on the left side of my new factory delivered Lycoming O-360. While checking out my wiring I noticed that the P lead seems to have no resistance to ground.
1. Do I have the correct connector for the P lead: I am using the nut and the fiber washer on the top of the magneto for the P lead and the shield ground is the screw marked GND.
2. Does the p lead normally have no resistance to ground?
3. Why?
I think the part that I can't get around is the fact that you ground the P lead to stop the magneto from firing so why is it seem to be grounded already. Help I am a product of the California school system.
