Less OWT's and more science please.
From the above you are implying that you had thousands of routine starts after shutting down the engine by turning off the Mags. Is that what you intended or am I misreading your post ?

I have a question for you
You are cruising along in your C 421 and one engine starts to develop a slight but noticeable high frequency vibration. What is the likely problem and what should you do ?
