Fix'em all 49 #5 Posted June 29, 2018 Picking this up Monday. It has no spark so I presume it will be points or condenser as most likely culprit. Anyone know if spares are readily available. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jarrovian 237 #6 Posted July 2, 2018 parts are available from a lot of dealers I use Meetens from Preston for a lot of spares or tap in Kohler K181 on e-bay but watch for Chinese electrical parts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fix'em all 49 #7 Posted July 6, 2018 I did see an electronic ignition conversion kit for under £19 on fleabay. Are these known to be poor quality Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jarrovian 237 #8 Posted July 6, 2018 i have tried 2 electronic modules they were crap in both K141 and K181 engines stick with points and if kept clean and adjusted no problems 1 HeadExam reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
