    The coils are the same as used on Green Top Mercuries made by Bendix. The coils are no longer made if you could find some NOS they might cost $120 each. The good news there are some Military Surplus Coils on eBay that will fit. The spark wire connector is located on the side and a small modification is needed to make them fit.. As to the plug wires just buy some 7mm twisted copper plug wire. You need to be creative to keep these old motors running.
