      I have an older Neptune, I think the coil may be bad, Can I replace it with something from a newer year? Wouldn’t a coil from a small motor work? As long as it fit?

        A "Boathouse Repair" is one that done without having tools or the skills to do it properly.

          I have done this more than once. It works great

            MonkeyButt.. Thank you for much for your suggestion! Would you have any suggestions on what years, or motor sizes I would look for, for coil replacements? So I can find model numbers of coils to purchase? Its a 1.5hp so its a little motor.. Thank you!
