I'm just getting into this, and I ordered the wrong tune-up kit the first time - Sierra 18-5250. I got the right one today - 18-5260, which says V8, but appears to be the replacement # for the 4.3L.
I've got 3 condensers now counting the one that was in the boat; the OMC manual gives slightly different microfarad capacities for the different engines, but they have no markings on them, and I'm wondering if they are interchangeable?
My old point set appears to have only been making contact on half or less of the discs, with some pitting. I haven't tried to smooth them off yet, to see if they are reusable. I should probably just set them aside and put the new ones in.
