i have a mid 50's merc mark 5 and a mid 50's merc super 5, wondering if someone could point me in the direction of a place to find coils and possibly other parts for them, thanks in advance
Make sure you know what coils you need. Mercury used two different suppliers for ignition components on their 2-cylinder models in that era. Bendix-Scintilla and Phelon magnetos went out the door with plusses and minuses for either one. There's a guy who advertises at the AOMCI.org site who has really good deals on the coils for either magneto. Goes by Old Outboard Jim.
