    Michael you can get decent repro starter handles from places like North York Marine if you want to pay $50.00 plus shipping.

    There are a lot of other choices if you don’t mind it not being quite so authentic in appearance.  Ben Breitner makes nice handles on a 3D printer and then of course there are the lawn-mower service parts which are always a fraction of anything with the word “boat” on it.

    Pay close attention to the link-and-synch on your JW….and if you can set the points with one of the OMC timing tools that can also help get good idle quality.

    Have you pulled the flywheel yet to have a look at the coils?  Hopefully they are genuine OMC coils in good condition.  The Chinese replacements IMHO do not spark as well at low RPM.
