Hmm...  I looked that trigger wheel over pretty closely and saw nothing
that looked like it could be separated.  Was I clear that the
distributor design in the Digifant design is quite different than TCI-H?
  Also, the replacement Hall Sender does come with a new trigger and
pin.  Finally, the word I got from Volk's Cafe people is that the pin
comes out.

You've got me curious, though, so I'm going to take a closer look tonight.


Thanks for the suggestion,
-MB
