Coils and condensers

[loco556]

Having what appears to be a spark problem on my 1957 18hp Evinrude. Going out to pick up a new pair of spark plug wires but I was wondering if anyone new what the capacity should be in microfarads on the condensers and what ohm ratings should be on the primary and secondary windings of the coils in ohms?

Re: Coils and condensers

A tune up kit is cheap, and contains two sets of points and the correct condensors. If you're having spark problems you may as well install the new points as well, it only takes a few minutes and eliminates one more source of trouble.
