Magneto ignitions

[stonewalljac]

Does anyone have a definitive answer to the use of Magneto Ignition distributors During WW2 on MB and GPW Jeeps. Yes or no they did not. I have never seen one on a period vehicle. But seems like they would have used them. Anybody know for sure?

Ask over at G503. If anyone would know for sure it will be those guys. I have never heard of such a thing myself.

I'll do that. I'm asking because I have seen a Mag distributor. But they may have just used it on a stationary engine such as a gen set or compressor.
