I recently picked up a 1967 Chrysler 75 hp 3 cylinder engine 75773 and am trying to get it running(I am new to working on outboards but learning quick). The engine is surprisingly clean, but I think it is because it hasn't been run much ever let alone recently.
When turning the key, the starter turns the flywheel but there is no spark in any plug. All 3 are brand new. I popped off the flywheel and the stator and magnets are clean and rust free. Not sure how to test my coil(without a coil tester) but pretty sure it is bad. It had a crack that looks like it was filled on the front and a crack on the back. You can see the images on my website:

Down the line, the distributor is clean and rust free too.
Does any one know of a replacement coil for this engine? Can a 12v auto coil work?
I did read that for older 70's chryslers with points, an auto coil can explode. I don't have points, but don't want to risk exploding either!
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
