Description:

It is an authentic amature-magneto (ignition coil) which was specially designed for use with Briggs and Stratton engines used on lawn and garden equipment. The purpose of this item is to deliver electric current for the ignition system. It produces pulses of high voltage which then are sent to the spark plugs. It is mainly made out of metal and it is sold individually. Please note a spark plug boot is sold separately.

Please note replacing this module would differ based on your unit, however the basic steps would be the same. To complete this repair you would need screwdriver set.

• Remove the housing/covers from the unit
• Remove the spark plug
• Bind the cylinder
• Remove the air filter cover and side cover
• Remove the throttle cable from the carburetor
• Disconnect the wires
• Remove old ignition coil
• Install new ignition coil
• Install the red wire
• Set the gap
• Install the black wire
• Reassembly and test the unit

Engine would cut off after 10-15 minuted of running and would continue to cut off in increasing intervals

Initially I replaced the ignition coil. That was quick and easy. That didn't resolve the issue. Replaced the ignition switch. Easy. Still having trouble with it cutting off. Took the clean air filter off and it ran fine. Hmmmm took carburetor off, cleaned it and replaced the fuel solenoid and it seems ok..... for now

Remove cowl and oil dipstick
Unplug spark plug boot
Remove 2 screws holding armature down. Note pay attention to the gap between it and the motor
Wire brush and clean old mounting area
Note armature does not come with spark plug boot but does come with spark plug connector attached.

Easy Repair

My customer service person was GREAT - Gave her all the numbers I could find and described the best I could, as my husband does not use the computer and he tells me what he need (Really have to listen). It was a little different in looks but fit perfect and the mower is working. Thank you
