Neptune 16hp with Eisemann model 82F Magneto

[Michael Brown]

Coils are bad. any idea on a replacement coil or repair this one. It appears to have been wound on the iron core.

Looking at Tubs post below me… I may be incorrect… so please, pics of the coil …If not what he showed you then I am good, if it IS what he showed you, then I am wrong again…lol  Yes that can be modified, I have done it with OMC coils as well as with the dual output Military surplus coils..  There are a couple of guys that have great info on how to do that… I failed to document what I did..

Not familiar with that motor but I believe you have one of these twin coils. If that is correct the OMC substitution doesn’t apply. Replacement coils are available at $125.00 on up, so you first want to be sure yours is really bad. So how did you determine yours is bad. Sometime today I’ll dig out one of the motors I have with that coil, see what the secondarys read, and post it. If you have twin coils, I’ll show you how they can be substituted.     

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

Michael; I also have a Neptune 16hp twin….sorry I can’t help on the coils…mine are good.  But what i’m trying to find is a donor  motor….I need a magneto plate and carburetor.  Parts seem are to come by…any help would be appreciated….located near Flint Mi. Thanks.

These Eisermann mag coils have been successfully replaced with the John Deer Pony Motor coils. That is the same mag that is in a Lawson Sport King 6 hp twin. Club member here did a replacement, and it worked out OK. Mag armature laminations have to be shaved down from 5/8 to 1/2 inch to fit.  If I remember there was a post here . or maybe a tech article in the AO about that substitution.
