Hi,

I have a 1987 Mercury 2.2 hp s/n A812136. The motor sat in storage for a long time. It worked great the first time out but on the second trip it would not start. Quickly discovered a lack of spark. I measured the coil primary at 5.1K olms and the secondary at 1.5 olms. It seams like the coil primary winding has gone way out of spec. I read on another forum that that the primary should measure 425-575 olms.

It appears that these coils are no longer available Mercury p/n 95242 alternate p/n 95242T. The number on the coil itself is F6T405. It appears to be made by Mitsubushi. From what I've read these motors were made by Tohatsu and sold under Mercury and Nissan brands in North America.

Does anyone know of a source for coils for this motor or an alternate coil that may work?

Thanks, Mark
