Model 298-586190, 3 HP Gamefisher year not known. Got dunked and now no spark; assumed transistor bad. Went to Sears Parts and this model shows up with discontinued points. No Transistor, transistor marked TT1-??? ??? looks like E3L. Where can I get Transistor? Sears shows coil, but I don't think dunking would harm coil. What do you think?

I haven't looked in a while,(2 weeks) but there was a guy had those electronics for sale on ebay.
I think he had one complete, bolt on stater system for sale for $100. I may have one myself, but would have to have yours in hand to tell. anyway, Hope this helps..Those things are like finding a needle in a hay stack...Thanks...JIM

I did a search (google) for Sears Gamefisher. One of the sites I hit showed 3 different manufacturers of the 3 Hp gamefisher engine. The first three digits of the model number identified mine as a Tanaka Engine even though the tag of the engine says Sears-Simpson. I went to the Tanka web site and found a local distributor who was able to get me the parts in a week. Tanaka has the "TT1 Transitor" which they call an ignitor.

You need to post the model number - Sears motors were built by 4 or 5 mfs over the years - if it doesn't have points it is possibly a Chrysler or Force model, but need your number to direct you to a source for parts..

Larry, your particular model was built by Tanaka. Sorry I have no further information other than that.

Tanaka was a Japanese built motor and they did sell under their own brand name as well between 1977 and 2001.

You might try a websearch for Tanaka and see what info you can dig up...

Larry,
I have a 298-586193, basicly the same thing. The label on top of mine says the mix is 50:1, as this is a new motor to me, I've yet to mix it this thin. I've been using a 40:1 mix til I have run it at least a couple of times. I trolled with it today for 3 hours and it did'nt miss a beat. I wish I had more info for you, but like I said it's new to me.
