Google CDI Electronics. They show the module as a repair item.

Sorry to say but CDI has disconntiued this part as a R&R.
I have a 65Hp 1978 really nice machine with good compresseion but bad module. I have search for the module but no luck yet.

thanks gentlemen, i did contact cdi and its true, they no longer repair this module. for the fellow with 65hp chrysler, go to FranzMarine@aol.com they have a kit for changing out old ignition components---flywheel- starter regulator and harness for a 55hp chrysler which has the same part# as 65hp chrysler module 600-plus dollars for that kit.

Yes g.bamford I have contact Franz at Franze Marine but I think 600 dollar is to much to put in that machine and I also live in Sweden, Europe and shipping will probably be another 100-150 dollars.
