Typical Installation
Magnetic Pickup Installation (see diagram below)
Drill and tap a hole in the flywheel housing (See Specifications for
model and thread size). IMPORTANT: Drilling too deep may damage
ring gear teeth. Blow chips with air hose when drilling and tapping hole.
Description
Gap Adjustment
Insert magnetic pickup and turn until it stops at
the face of the gear. Back-off the gear by turn-
ing the pickup counter-clockwise 1/4, 1/2, or
A magnetic pickup is an AC generator. It is normally installed into the fly-
wheel housing of an internal combustion engine, so that the starter ring
gear acts upon it to generate a voltage pulse each time a gear tooth passes
the end of the sensor.

See Gap Chart below to determine gap distance
based on the turn. Check gap clearance by
rotating the gear completely around.

MP3298: Type 300 Stainless Steel.
NOTE: Magnetic pickup gap should be adjusted so
that the minimum voltage required is attained at the engine’s lowest
RPM. The voltage will increase as the speed increases.
Locknut: Type 300 Stainless Steel.
MP7905 and MP7906: Type 6061 Aluminum/Anodize Class 1.
Locknut: Steel Nickel Plated.
If erratic readings occur, remove magnetic pickup and check the
magnetic tip for metal chips.

insulated per MIL-W-16878D Type E, 1 White and 1 Black.
Output Voltage (all models): 200 V.P.P. TYP. (tested at 1000 I.P.S.
20 Pitch gear, 0.005 Gap., and 100K OHM Load).
Coil Resistance:
Always use a two-conductor shielded cable. Ground the
shield to a metal frame ground at the engine end only.
Never run these wires
next to spark plug wires
or in wire loom with other
wires carrying inductive
MP3298: 975 Ohms TYP.
MP7905 and MP7906: 2500 Ohms TYP.
Potting (all models): Internal portion of pickup is filled with epoxy resin,
making the magnetic pickup oil and moist resistant.
Temperature (all models): -65° to +225°F (-54 ° to 107°C).
