For a couple years now, I have had a problem where engine runs great for awhile, 15 min to an hour, then very rough. The engine by the way is on a leaf blower. When I brought it out this year, didn’t start on first pull, checked spark, non. Couple of you helped me out on how to ohm a coil and...

Ok. Little set back, well sort of. While I was ohming the primary winding I noticed it was intermittent. (I had had too solder the original wire that goes too condenser and points on because aftermarket coil had a very short primary wire) so I thought my solder was bad. As it turned out the new...

Thanks. Will report back when I get new condenser( right from China I am sure so maybe coil will like that! Oh ya know what I don’t have coil in for those ohm readings,

Oh wait. Primary was 15ohms your spec was .5 to 1.5 ohms

I agree according to your numbers. Any idea why Sperry meter would only show 1(which I assume is the same as OL on other meters) at any settings? I really want to see a reading from a non automatic setting. Anyway I ordered a condenser will let you know if that produces spark. Appreciate the...

Well I had already replaced coil with an aftermarket coil. Primary winding 15 ohms(that’s an auto setting on my ohm meter) secondary is 9.8 ohms. I ordered a condenser hoping that’s the problem. My sherry meter can’t get it too move off 1 in either 200 or 2k or 20k. Actually I was expecting...

Thanks. And I should have posted that right away. By the way even though the ohms maybe unreliable I would still like to mess around and compare the old and new parts. Thanks for the repair manual, but it doesn’t seem to have electrical specs, say for coil and condenser? I really thought it...

Anyway it’s a magnetic coil inside flywheel.

I tried to take a picture of my coil for you but says it’s too large to post.

Now somewhat confused, how does an automotive coil relate to my Kohler coil inside the flywheel.

Thanks guys. This coil is set inside fly wheel and I think is not adjustable. I will try a new points and condenser. Will first look at insulator. Will let you know

Replaced coil, still no spark. I am thinking I probably should have ordered a condenser also. By the way only way for me to find parts is EBay, straight from China of course so just hoping they are good. Anyway in Checking the condenser, I am on 20k ohm setting, Red probe to wire, black too...
