Default Got a buddy that needs help

I have a friend that has an RV8 with a IO360 angle valve 200hp with dual Unison Laser ignitions.

When he switches his ignition to the left side the engine quits. He says he has checked everything he knows how to check but has not found the problem. I know nothing about these ignitions but we are hoping some of you have ideas.

Thanks,

Pat

I'd call Joe Logie at Champion. 904.772.1909
He is THE expert on the Laser ignitions.

I have a set of low time Lazar mags off an Angle valve IO360 for sale if interested. Control box was bad.
