 Hello Todd:

 The Model Numbers of the Engine Are Stamped into the Metal Engine Cover, usually Above the Spark Plug Hole. The Coil is Gapped at .020in. The 1 Wire on the Coil is for the Shutoff. It Grounds the Coil and Stops the Coil from Firing. It MAy be Attached to the Throttle Control Plate on the Engine or May go Straight to the Ignition Switch. Look for the Model Numbers and Send them, Please. With the Numbers I can get an Online Breakdown for you to View. This May Assist you in this Repair. Hope this Helps. Let me know what Happens, Please. Thanks.

The Breakdown is Page 5 of 11 and the Item Number is 339, 340, and 343. Number 339 is the Point Set Complete. If you need Instructions on the Point Set replacement, Just let me know. Hope this Helps.
