23D coil part number

[Simplicity314 0]

I've decided to get rid of the battery ignition on my 23D. Just wore down another brand new car battery, and have just about had it. I'm so disgusted right now I want to spit. I can't seem to find a new part number. The old one is 296834. I ran that number through Jacks and came up empty. Thanks in advance.

Heres a start. http://www.briggs.learnsmallenginerepair.com/BSIGNITION.htm I would reccomend going to the "Magnetron Upgrade" kit if you could find it, although the points system does have it's merits.

Can't do magnetron on a 23D as it uses the three leg coil, different flywheel, and different flwywheel key. Watch Ebay for a used one or NOS, when these were still available they were just a hare under $100. Also if you're wearing down the battery you have a charging system problem. I ram battery ignition on my B-12 and my Sov with no charging troubles, could even run lights occaisonally and not drain a lawn tractor battery.

According to the B&S dealer site, 296834 is still a good number and it lists for $102.00
