direction of rotation for magneto viewed from off side

I realize that for most persons this will sound rather mundane but... when viewed from the off side (timing side), can anyone tell me the direction (counter clockwise or clockwise) that the magneto rotates? Thanks for the help. I appreciate it. Dave Campbell, Eagle River, Alaska

Hi Dave,the gear end revolves counter clockwise as viewed,the contact breakers
revolve clockwise as viewed.there is an in depth article in the technical section on ignition timing,this can be found by returning to the website homepage and selecting technical info.

Richard, Thank you so very much for the reply and other information regarding this engine. Living in Alaska has some advantages but the disadvantages can really be daunting at times. Take care and stay well.
