 Ron Asks:

Where should prop setting be when checking ignition system?

Remember that you should have first set your prop stops to 5800 for TO, 
5500 for climb
and about 5000 for cruise. These are approximate and you may alter them 
after appropriate
flight test.

Ignition test is done at 4000 rpm, therefore neither fine or coarsest 
setting will latch up
and control the prop speed and either should allow a change with bad 
plugs.  I use fine setting
for ignition test, then flip the Airmaster to manual and depress the 
coarse switch to test that
the prop pitch is changable
