    Tubs, I finally found my JD little horse motor coil photos, and
    found out what I thought I knew was only partial reality!

    It seems my B&S coil swap was on one Neptune, did not
    work, and I borrowed an original, good, Eisemann coil and
    got it running.

    The JD coil swap went on a different Neptune twin, and in
    fact “may” be a runner. I found a video with said coil conversion therapy,
    and it appears to have great spark.

    I hunted down this motor in the racks today, and it’s tagged,
    “Has JD Pony Motor Coil Swap.”
    “Carb neck on crankcase restricted and needs work”

    The neck that the carb bolts too was broken off at one time
    and welded back on by someone.
    I need to find out if I actually tried running this motor on the JD coil,
    and refresh myself what’s actually restricted on the carb neck.

    Prepare to be boarded!
