18 hp replacement coil
« on: July 29, 2014, 11:38:44 am »
I was looking on ebay and there was a New Style coil listed. Anyone else heard of a "New Style" coil for the twin cyl. oppy's. I'm on my 4th. coil and at $70 bucks a pop I'm hoping that there truly is a upgrade coil. All I tryin' to do is mow lawn with a old JD 240 garden tractor. bjr

Don't buy new coils! They are freakin junk. Find a junkyard and get a used coil oem is better than the new aftermarket, if you can't find any message me and let me know I can get them and ship them to you for 15.00

I have heard there is a new coil out for the Oppy's.
Was also told they are alot better now.
I have not tried one myself.

Of course I have plenty of used ones that work just fine. lol

Don't know for sure. Been an issue for us here, and its hard to come across any around here. The "new" coils that we can get from briggs definitely cut out.
