My old Bendix mags are still working well, but they have been on the IO-360 for over 20 years and I think are the source of a small oil leak. I'm thinking of replacing them with new Slick mags from Aircraft Spruce. Anything I should know? I've read they are different to time, using a pin instead of looking for the red dot on the phenolic gear. They are supposed to be lighter. My harness is relatively new, do I need a new one to fit the Slicks? One of the two needs the impluse, two new gaskets, anything else?
