It seems as though magnetos still confuse many people. I understand, as I was there once, too. 
In the interest of helping everyone have a quick link to defuse the confusion, I am posting two links to videos I created for both Slick, Bendix mags, and PMAGS, including the use of a Slick SureStart.
Here is the installation and timing of a direct drive Bendix magneto and a Bendix magneto with a retard feature and a sureSTART on
a IO540.
Here is the link for Slick magnetos, both direct drive and impulse coupled, how they are timed and wired to the starter switch. Also how to
time PMags. Here is the link:
