We've recently acquired a 114-series P-Mag (with latest V40 firmware) with the intent of replacing the right hand Slick mag on our O-360-A1F6. The current plan is to retain the left hand impulse-coupled Slick mag.
My question to those with experience with this configuration is, should I continue to plan on starting using only the left impulse coupled mag, or should I simply set both P-lead switches to "ON" and start on both the impulse and P-mag? If experience has proven one method to work better than the other, why is that the case?
Our ignition control consists of toggle switches, so there's no worry about having to figure out how to make a key switch achieve the desired ignition configuration for engine start. P-Mag power is supplied through a separate toggle switch being fed from a separate breaker on the main electrical buss.
Thanks for your well-considered and helpful responses.
