1982 Briggs & Stratton

[Goldwinger]

I recently purchased a Klipper go kart with a 1982 Briggs & Stratton motor (Model 13202-0801-01). I want to install a kill switch on the steering wheel support. The problem I have is that the only wire I think I can use is a very fine wire that’s already connected to the armature-magneto. Any help would be appreciated.

Your pics are too close and out of focus... but any single wire coming out ofbthe epoxy that isn't the spark wire or attached to the frame by rivet is going to be the kill wire.

If you're worried about it breaking off just make sure to insulate it well and and ziptie the wire you attach to the coil frame

If I understand you correctly that bare red wire is my kill switch. How do I wrap a wire around it and insulate it? Hope these pics are better.

if it's solid you'll have to solder to it, use common stranded wire. Insulate with heat shrink, tape wont hold in that location.

Hope these pics are better.
