Hello all,

I just found this fourm and am very excited to be here.

I own 4 Johnson JW model outboards in various states of repair and was looking for tune up parts. I ran across the parts section of this site and noticed that on the chart they list only a one cylnder engine for the 3 HP catagory in the JW vintage. I looked at the cois listed for sale and they "look" like the old ones but the JW's are of course 2 cylinder engins. So, I guess my question is, do I just buy two of the things?

Thanks in advance for any help on this subject.

Re: Johnson JW coil question

Yes you do. The JW's used the same coil as all the other twins and singles from 1951, on up till about 1974. Good luck with those projects.
