Flip Flop Circuit to bypass secondary spark.

Maybe you guys can help me out with this flip flop circuit....

Anyways I can’t seem to get the output to toggle on a consistent rate rater it tends to be random.

My attempt is to find a circuit that will bypass the secondary spark ignition on my small generator so that I can attempt to use it with hho. I was hoping to accomplish that with the steady state of the 7473 IC chip..

Thanks.

I used a 555 timer to set the flip flop for a pulse and ran the out of the 555 to the clock of the flip flop

Thanks that confirms what i was thinking... a YouTube reply informed me that i needed a bounceless switch circuit before the flip flop.  Using a 555 timer should help buffer out the noise. I just need to find a circuit layout that will allow a reed switch or hall sensor to activate the 555.      

Thanks,

put reed switch inline with the reset on the 555 you will have power to the 555 all the time but it will only send a pulse to the flip flop when the reed is switched to close by the magnet

Sounds good.. i will be looking for a diagram where i can connect the reed on the reset.  Also found  a diagram where it shows a momentary push botton controling the 555, i was thinking of replacing the switch with a reed. check out  image bellow what do you think?
