That is useful information and your link for regulators was exactly what I was looking for, thank you.
Swapping over of the brush units on my dynastart may not be straightforward, it seems not to be in its original configuration as you may be able to see in the photo of what I am working with.

I'm building an Arrow engine at the moment for a project, with distant memories of trying to start an Arrow that I had modified back in the 60s. So for this one the engine sits on a rig, with a 1 hp electric motor, various belts and chains etc, so that starting is easy.
The intention is to get it running as a standard engine before I start modifying it.
Your mention of the toothed wheel and ECU for timing and fuel injection is very interesting, could you possibly post some details? Are you using the Megasquirt ECU?
Thanks
Alan

Hi Ivor
The earth brush terminal looks to be in a different position to mine but you could always tap another hole for them as it only connects to the main body, just be careful to miss the field coils inside!!
