    Sorry folks that I’ve ignored this thread for a couple days, I’ve been busy. The engines are 1957 Johnson 35 hp model RDE-19 that have been converted to long shaft. One of them has the gen kit.

    The points I got were individual points I cross referenced from the part numbers I got from a parts manual I downloaded. I couldn’t find a tune up kit with google so I just bought parts piecemeal to be sure I got the right thing. I checked the numbers on the packages to confirm they sent me what I ordered. I’m pretty sure I got the right thing. There is really no significant play in the mag plate bushing.

    The Sierra points are part #18-5156
    The BRP tune up kit is part# 172522

    Thanks for your help everyone, I’ll never buy Sierra points again and will think twice about buying anything else from them as well if I can avoid it.
