Magnetron?

You going to mount a microwave oven on your bike, or a military radar? :laugh:

:doah: no, its what briggs calls their "newer" style armature coil

But i thought the same when i first heard the name.

Kit to convert 5HP Briggs points and condenser armature to Magnetron:
part #394970

Magnetron armature for 5HP Briggs:
part #397358

 

[minichoper]

So can i just scrap the points and just bolt on a 397358

Yes Sir, that is correct.

OldMiniBikes.com has the part at the best price I could find, less than 30 dollars for SKU# R7288

I already bought one from the greedbay. I would have gladly bought from the warehouse
