Ok, I'm getting my Silverline ready to sell (I'll explain why in another post when I have some time  ) but found I have a bad ignition coil (Mercruiser 888 which is a Ford 302 ) which is not surprising since the date code is D5  . My question is can I use an automotive ignition coil or does it have to be a marine ignition coil? I need to get the coil tomorrow so I can sell it this weekend hopefully .------------------

You should use a marine coil , if there is a problem , and , you or the person who buy`s your boat has to make an insurance claim , it could be refused ( void ) because of the coil. I have seen it happen , I fish for a living and have had many boats. Just my .02 JOHN ------------------

 Thanks! I was ribbing Tim because he told Ken and me {in french, even! } that he would take pics of all the babes his boat attracts and share them with us. Must not work too well, since he's selling the boat now...  ------------------

Turns out the condensor went bad, not the coil . But then I had a hub break on me so I am replacing that and all the bearings right now.Steve, I can still get some on my friends boats and try to get a hold of the ones from last year . I dont need them anymore though . Dave, trust me, there is no competition for Andrea! Did I mention she is a cheerleader (no, not blonde) and a dancer (ballet not stripping but... )? ------------------
