I can confirm that some idiot did mal-adjust his sensor bracket and sheared the set screw on the flywheel. I'll willing to bet that if you are savvy enough to rebuild an engine, you could tell that the coil wires are two diff. sizes.

A multi meter with an "RPM" setting is what I use to tell if my sensors are firingh. Hook it up as per the manual. No or unsteady RPMs indicate something afoot. I measure the signal pulse that the dme shoots the coil.

I cut off and bent a allen wrench to loosten the bracket bolts. (search "tools I made" for photos of same.
