quote t2stroke:
You have to know what is in the motor in terms of coils? The older larger engines used #580197 coils which took a #580419 condensor. They no longer make that coil, just the one coil for all models #584477. That coil takes the #580321 condensors which comes in the #172522 tuneup kit along with #580148 points & oiler wick. That kit fits all two cylinder engines from forever now. You got the right stuff!
I believe if your motor still had blue or purple coils in it then you would need #172523 kit which has the different condensors #580419. Getting harder to find those coils now. Hope that helps!

This is valuable info. I did not know the condensers needed to be different. Anybody know what the capacitance specs are for the two?
