Product Description ?

This magneto, also known as an ignition coil, is a genuine OEM replacement part used in outdoor power equipment. It generates the spark that ignites the air and fuel mixture in the engine combustion chamber and allows it to run. Over time, the magneto may need to be replaced due to a worn-out wire coil, damage to the spark plug wire, or incorrect gaping between the magneto and flywheel. A faulty magneto will result in misfiring, hard starting, and low equipment performance. Begin by removing the spark plug for your safety and removing the motor housing to access the flywheel. Take note of how the wiring is routed before unthreading/unclipping the fasteners that hold the magneto in place. Pull out the faulty part and position the new magneto in its place. Set the correct gap between the magneto and flywheel using a feeler gauge. It is important to set the correct size as a gap that is too narrow or too wide will prevent the engine from starting or running smoothly. Reconnect the wiring using your notes and secure the new magneto in place with the appropriate fasteners.

    Frank for model number 59173 asked on 2022-05-09
    Hello Frank, Thank you for your inquiry. The magneto would actually be listed under the Briggs and Stratton engine parts, so in order to verify this part number, we actually need the model number and type code of the engine, as the engine parts are listed separately under the engine's model number. If you could resubmit your question with the model number and type code of the engine, we will be happy to help you. We are looking forward to hearing from you.
