Installation of the Auto-Choke Ignition Unit
While installing the ignition unit in your model, be careful to have all parts that are connected to the unit and the engine situated as far
as practical from the radio receiver and radio antenna. The throttle servo should be mounted a distance of 8–12 inches from the engine.
The spark plug cable must not touch any part of the model structure as vibration may damage the cable. If this is not practical, it will be
necessary to provide an insulation material for the cable. Secure the ignition unit to the airframe using the provided hardware. Install the
bolts through the three rubber grommets and tighten securely. The grommets help to dampen the ignition unit from vibration. DO NOT
HARD MOUNT. Your Evolution ignition module has steel braided spark plug leads with grounding straps. Attach the grounding strap lead to
a cylinder base bolt or suitable place on the engine, and push the spark plug cap firmly on the spark plug. Install the spiral wrap spark plug
lead covering to protect the plug lead steel braiding from any possible chafing.
