Lawn mower magnetos

[Putt-Rite]

Can anybody tell me about lawn mower magnetos? I've got quite a few, there's no points on these engines, is there an electronic advance built into the magnetos?

There is an excellent explanation by Bob Shores of each of the different types in Strictly IC Vol 58 pp 11 if you can get your hands on a copy.
