I have a 94 sport 400l. I am missing one of the four magnets on the flywheel.
Is this bad for the engine? Could this cause a lot of engine vibration?
Can you have a magnet glued back on?

Thanks

I have used some good 2-part epoxy and glued them back on before. Centrifugal force will tend to help things stay in place. Vibration from not being there really isnt a problem. The only issue to worry about would be not charging the battery or erratic spark. If you decide to glue it back on be sure to get the polarity correct.

 

I do not have the other magnet. Bought it like that. Noticed it was missing when I changed out the counter balance.
Can you buy the individual magnets? i have another flywheel but it has 6 magnets on it. I heard you cant use the 6 mag flywheel
in place of the 4 mag.

 

You are correct the other flywheel will have the motor backfiring and farting like crazy.
