Dony, had an engine shop like yours for years. Just a suggestion when replacing coils. Remove old like you did, then install new ones with flywheel magnets out of the way but then just snug up new coils, then rotate the magnet to one coil, place business card in place and then loosen coil hold down bolts. Magnets will pull coil into place, tighten hold down bolts and you are off and running without having to fight the magnetic pull on the new loose coil. Just a suggestion.

Companies are constantly coming out with "latest and greatest" designs like those powered coils.
