The present invention is directed to a magneto having two sets of primary windings and no secondary windings which will allow the magneto to function as an ignition source even though one set of primary windings fail. Each primary winding provides current to an independent set of points, condensers, high voltage transformers, and then to a common distributor. The magneto will also continue to function even though one set of points, one condenser, one high voltage transformer or one secondary winding fails. The primary windings are formed, by winding two wires joined by insulation onto a common laminated core.

The present disclosure is directed to an articulated clamp for maintaining a distributor housing in a fixed rotational position on an engine block. The one piece articulated clamp allows the distributor to be removed and replaced very fast while maintaining the correct engine timing. The articulation allows for variations in engine block mounting surfaces without the need to reposition the articulated mounting clamp on the distributor shaft housing.
