Hiyu guys .. I've a 1979

Hiyu guys .. I've a 1979 mercury 115 ..6cyl I'm wondering if this model came with points " breakers" or a " breakerless type of ignition" if its meant to have points ." where might I find them. In the distributor or at the magneto??? Thanks for any help you can give me..

By the way ... If you hadn't guessed I'm new to outboards and have had to ordered a manual ..

Its nice to be able to get a little help in the right direction before tearing
into the big black bugger..
 
"The engine you describe shoul

"The engine you describe should have "ADI" ignition with no points or distributor. The ignition voltage is generated at the stator under the flywheel and is triggered by the trigger, also under the flywheel. It is then sent to the switch box which sends the high voltage to the six coils, which further amplifies it and sends it to the spark plugs. Unless someone has tinkered with the timing adjustments, you will not have to do any maintenance on the ignition system.
