- In today's how to, I install an updated ignition coil (magneto style) in my grandmas old school 5hp Briggs & Stratton horizontal shaft engine. This new ignition coil is plug & play with no adjustments needed! A very much needed improvement over those pesky points!

Hi Marty. I picked up a 1980 Mountfield tiller with a Briggs 5hp vertical shaft engine for next to nothing a few months ago here in the UK. After watching this video a few times (as I had literally ZERO experience in this and no spark), I finally got round to looking at it last week and following your instructions, even on how to find parts codes etc, I installed a new magneto and plug and gave it a service and BINGO! Up and running like a dream from a non-starter. Thank you for your straight forward, well explained instructions. Keep up the good work. Cheers, Dean.
Congratulations on your success!
Hello DF , Did you buy part no 397358 , like Marty showed on Video ? As mine is also vertical shaft B&S 5hp. Regards John
@@emclearance5694 Hi there. Yes I did. I first followed Marty's advice on how to track down the correct part code and as it happened, I thereby confirmed that the same part code was correct for mine. I bought an aftermarket part here in the UK for around £18 and it worked a charm.
@@SquidgyBottomFarm .My rotovator is B&S 5hp, Vertacle shaft . I went to my B&S agent in Mansfield . It was the same Number as Marty . I told the long time known shop owner what i was doing . He said " yes just get the cheap one off ebay " . It should be here by Wednesday 3rd May . I keep you posted .
My Ignition coil / magnito arrived Wed 3rd , i whipped the cover off , 2 bolts for Magnito clipped wires . Had a cuppa tea cos im English , put back together . 1st pull cough splutter , 2nd pull started instantly , runs perfect , and it now starts halfway pulling the cord recoil . Chuffed to Bits . Thanks DF , Thanks Marty .
Thanks Marty, great video. Used it to install the new magneto on an '87 Briggs I rebuilt.
Great job, Paul!
This helped me get my free garage sale tiller up and running- much better than the 1975 factory point system- Thanks!
A couple of years ago, my neighbor set out a little chipper next to the road with a free sign on it. I snatched it up, but it didn't have spark. I figured that the condenser was bad and I shoved it in the corner for a later date to deal with.
The other day, someone down the road was giving away a pressure washer that had some issues and I snatched that up as well. Both B&S 5HP, chipper being the older model. I took the magneto off of the pressure washer and put it on the chipper. Walla, chipper has spark again.
Thanks for sharing
steven welch gotta love the free finds! Thanks for watching!
a business card is a perfect spacer for fly wheel and mag. coil spacing
Take the pull shroud off, and squirt some oil inside of the pull shaft. The dry bearings inside are what make that squeeling noise.
This video was a life saver! Same with me working on my grandpa's old wizard tiller! Thanks for the help!
Glad it helped! You're welcome!
Awesome thanks man helped my old generator
Good job Marty. That squeal is probably coming from that aluminum starter hub that you took off to remove the flywheel. You can take it off and carefully remove the cap on it. There are ball bearings inside keep an eye on them don't loose them. Clean everything up, reinstall the bearings in all their pockets and put the cap back on. You can apply a little oil not grease on the bearings before installing the cover. There is usually a small hole in the center of the stem that goes into the recoil thayou can put a tiny amount of oil in it to lube the bearings. A quick fix you can just put a little oil in the Hale and work the starter hub to free the sticky bearings up. Then when you are done with your tilling, take it apart and clean everything up. The squeal will get louder over time if you don't clean it up. Hope this helps. Ray Campbell
Raymond Campbell thank you for the good tips!!
@@MartyGramRC what distance in mm?
This helped me alot I appreciate you video 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
I made a front wheel for this type of rototiller irealy works great
This is the exact model I have only it's a Sears badge I stead of Wards badge. I think it's the magneto as well because it sat in a field for years before I got it.
I am not a mechanic and I dont really wanna tear this thing apart to fix it. This is a good place to start. Thanks.
Why not cut the wire to the points on the old ignition to avoid having to take the flywheel off since the new does not use it anyway.
What I'd like to know is why the hell didn't they just go with the simple Ignition coil to begin with?
Getting Along Alone I know, right?! It’s all about the money I’m sure.
Those old engines were designed and built before the new technology came along. Looking forward to saving my back by not having to crank so much!👍👍
I own one exactley like it what year is it
I’m not sure the year - very old. Lol
So this bypasses the points and condenser???
Yes
I dont think your grandma would like you smacking on the starter clutch like that, She would have used the right tool. Or she would have approved of you using channel lock pliers and your chisel to wedge to keep the flywheel from turning.
I don’t think I asked your opinion.
