You should have a set of points under the flywheel. I remove the flywheel with a steel bearing duct taped to the center of the crank shaft and support (not pry) the flywheel while smacking gently with your biggest hammer. All you are doing is shaking it a little and it will pop off- if stubborn, line up the key way with the support. Once there - you should see a wire bail over a small plate carrying the coil. Under it is the points- the condensor is on the side. If you put the engine in idle shutoff, you can see under the top flange a slotted screw head. It is the throttle friction and "hold me here" bolt. Loosen it and the whole ignition comes right off. |

Try Evinrude or Johnson parts too! They work with this motor.Don't ask shops for SeaKing parts, they;ll look at you crosseyed. Ask for parts from Evinrude and Johnson that are comparable. You may have to take the part in to get a perfect fit. |
