Ignition Coil Installation
NOTE: If a new ignition coil is being installed, the spark plug cap, gasket, protector tube and grommet must
be removed from the old coil and installed on the new coil. See steps 1 through 8 for procedures
to remove and install these existing parts.
If the existing ignition coil will be remounted, proceed to step 9.
1. Remove the rubber gasket (1) on the plug cap (2) by rolling back the gasket onto the spark plug wire.
2. Remove the cap (2) from the wire by turning the cap counterclockwise three or four revolutions while gen-
tly pulling it off the wire (Figure 12a-29, Page 12a-29).
3. Remove the gasket (1) and protector tube (3) from the old coil.
NOTE: Moisten the spark plug wire with water to make gasket removal and installation easier.
4. Remove the grommet (4) from the old spark plug wire. Clean the grommet and place it on the new spark
plug wire (5).
5. Install the protector tube onto the new wire.
6. Slide the gasket onto the end of the new spark plug wire.
7. Install the cap (2) on the new coil spark plug wire by rotating it clockwise three or four revolutions while
applying light pressure on the cap.
8. Install the gasket (1) on the cap (2) (Figure 12a-29, Page 12a-29).
9. Position the ignition coil (7) onto the cast mounting bosses on the engine crankcase and tighten the two
mounting bolts (6) finger tight.
10. Rotate the flywheel (8) until the magnet is positioned directly under the ignition coil. Use a 0.012 inch
(0.304 mm) bronze feeler gauge to set the air gap between the ignition coil and the flywheel magnet.
Tighten the two mounting bolts (6) to 30 in-lb (3.4 N·m) (Figure 12a-30, Page 12a-29).
11. Connect the 18-gauge black wire to the spade terminal on the coil (Figure 12a-28, Page 12a-28).
12. Position the fan housing close to the engine crankcase and slide the plug wire grommet into the notch
on the housing.
