Try looking on ebay for “nos omc points” . If postage from Canada to the States wasn’t absurd I’d send you a set.
Another option is to look for a cheap parts motor. That’s how this hobby starts, cause now you want to get another part motor to get the first part motor running 🙂
Another (pessimistic) thing to consider regarding the coils is they may look ok, but be open internally.
Ha! Most of the time I get a parts motor, I get it to be a runner and end up at square one again, looking around again for a parts motor!
Just a heads up Wedgie, but the points in the link you provided are P/N 581207 and are used in the low tension mags as found in the ’74 – ’76 9.9/15 horse motors and a couple others of that era. The common universal mag as found on the ’56 RD use P/N 580148. I can’t remember what the exact difference in them is but they are slightly different from each other.
Looking at the Ebay points again, I think they might be 580148 points and packaged wrong. The 581207 points I’ve seen were one piece and the slot for the adjusting cam was different.
