Yes I do believe he in fact did.I think they were Mall coils if I recall correctly,rare as a hens tooth.Luckily McCulloch coils are not.Any 10 series points type coil will fit that saw.
As it is,a lot of people have trouble with points type ignition system.I don't but perhaps it just goes with my age or something.
Al , I remember a couple of Homelite saws and a Bolens/Pioneer saw .
