Has anyone ever successfully reinstalled a flywheel center hub magnet?

1995 Johnson 200 hp Ocean Runner-

I have been chasing a "cascading" electrical problem. Have replaced some obviously damaged ignition components. After 3rd time taking off the flywheel, I finally found the loose center hub magnet. I have reattached as per CDI guidelines, but still cannot get this fine ol' motor running right...I have searched high and low on the subject but hoping one or more of the OMC gurus here may help. Is every flywheel individually timed at factory? OR can you just reattach center hub magnet per "standard" CDI alignment, or as some say, get a whole new flywheel? I DO have a white mark on flywheel with a notch on magnet to align that way if it is the BEST way (about an inch and a half away from CDI specs). Then I would need to dissolve the new JB Weld if even possible on this.
Thanks in advance for any and all thoughts/ideas on the subject.

I just had the same issue and I replaced the flywheel for peace of mind. It didn’t fix my timing issue but that’s going to be another thread after I check a few other things.

Thanks for that, sorry to hear you got no joy from the replacement. I think I'm still chasing some old switches and wires for grounding issues also. I've replaced 2 stators, 1st one I'm pretty sure was caused by a battery going bad and with a short to shore power/charger...2nd one not so sure now...
