Looking for a ignition coil for a yardman chipper. Has 5 hp written on the cover, but no other info I can find on the engine. MFG.Date reads 240650/J109C, but nothing specific comes up when I type that in.

On yardmans website I have to know the year to find the right parts. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
Brad.

Thanks, wife picked it up at a garage sale a couple years ago for cheap. 20 bucks I think. It had carb issues but ran. I let it sit and kind of forgot about it. I cleaned up the flywheel, and the spark plug works in my other equipment. I can find a parts list of everything but the engine parts. The website just says MDT engine not available. We just want it for chipping up mulch.

Thanks

Do you have the shroud, the cover which goes over the flywheel? On the top of that cover will be the model, type and code numbers for your Briggs engine. My best guess without the numbers is Briggs part number 397358, but please don’t purchase one until you have more than a guess. If it is not the correct one, as you should know electrical parts are not returnable. Here is the manual for that engine. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6NaqjIxWV1ycG8wd0s3Z2Q2X00/view

Yes I have the cover, I looked at that cover 10 times, and since you posted this I looked again and found some numbers. Real hard to read. Here is a pic. Can you make any sense of these numbers? Looks like a bunch of numbers are missing.

Thanks

Those are the numbers I need, nothing missing. model 130212, type 3112-01, and code 89100507. Model tells me which series engine you have, type tells us about modifications wanted by the customer, and the code say when and where the engine was built. The coil number I posted is the one for your engine. The manual will tell you how to install it.

Sweet thanks. I swear I looked at that cover 10 times looking for a number. Don't know how I missed it all those times. You are the man. Huge thanks. Now I can fix it and make the wife happy. She wants to mulch up a bunch of stuff.

The tank itself, has a small bowl under where the carb mounts, that can develop rust holes in it and cause a lot of problems.
