Kubota T1400 Ignition Coil

Hello .. I have asked this question a couple of years ago .. but after being lead do two dead-end routes ..I am asking if there is an update to my query ..
I have a Kubota T1400H ride on mower .. brilliant bit of equipment .. but the ignition coil packed up .. Kubota replacement .. $400 dollars ..
I saw a couple of UTube video's saying there was replacements ..
I bought the replacements .. both had the securing bolt holes in the wrong place ..
We even tried to fit the replacement by cutting and filing it down .. a bad move ..
If anyone has successfully fitted a generic coil ..please let me know .. Thanks
 
Teryl fixes all actually shows the Kawasaki coil being compatible by using slightly shorter retainer screws (or trim the ends of the ones you have). Modifying the kill wire to connect and basically changing over the high-tension plug lead. It's a pretty straight forward process.

There is no real magic involved.
 
Hi .. Well after checking the coil .. cables plug etc .. there is still no spark ..
Could it be the flywheel ..
Or is there another problem we should look at ..
Thanks ..
 
Hi Breton Lion,

Are you using an adjustable gap spark tester?

Did you remove the top cover an disconnect the coil kill wire? Did you watch the video that was sent? Missing some diagnostics on your end.

A sheared flywheel key on a rider is very uncommon unless the flywheel was left loose. Even then it would show fire but would be out of correct time.

Does the magnet on the flywheel attract a screwdriver blade really well? Is the air gap set?
