Johnson TN-28 Coils

[firstjohnson]

I'm new to this whole boat motor thing and I am wondering about sources for parts. I just purchased a TN-28 and have found that the coils are shot. Any suggestions where to source these little gems? I'm not picky and working used is great too. Also are point available for this motor too?

Re: Johnson TN-28 Coils

parts can be found here on iboats or just simply by googling your model number. Coils for mine are relatively cheap $20 - $44 a coil. Tn-28 should be a 52-53 5hp heres a link to the coil on iboats http://www.iboats.com/mall/partfind...gd_poid=334777&gd_row=24&**********=182148169

Contact set are the points and iboats doesn't carry them. I'm having some trouble finding some. I figured if I had to do the coils I might as well do the points too. Thanks for the reply.

Are they "push points?" If so, I think are are quite a bit more expensive if you can find them. I've had pretty good luck cleaning/shining them up and regapping.

You can try SeaWay Marine in Seattle.
