I have a Sea King/Gale 5D12, 5HP GG9002A. I have installed new plugs. I have good spark out of one plug only. I have checked the points gap and still no spark out of the second plug. I suspect the condenser or the Coil. Where can I get these parts?
Originally posted by Paul Moir:<br /> A GG9002A should be a '56 Gale built 5hp. Gale was a division of OMC that supplied outboards to third parties for resale. You probably recognise the other OMC divisions, Johnson and Evinrude. Not suprisingly, your Gale has a lot in common with an older Johnson 5hp.<br />If you've filed, cleaned and gapped the points and you still have no spark, the next most likely problem is with the ignition coil. Carefully examine it for any cracks in it's insulation. I think you have the more modern coils that look like this:<br />
<br />That coil is still made and sold (cheap!) by both Bombardier and the aftermarket supplier Sierra. The Sierra coils (18-5181 pictured above) are available from Iboats, NAPA autoparts, and various other places. Or you can get a 'factory' coil from a Johnson or Evinrude dealer.<br />If you've got the older coils, here's an article on how to repair them:<br /> http://www.oddjobmotors.com/tt1_replacewico_coil.htm <br /><br />Hope that helps!![]()
