Want to Buy McCulloch SP81 ignition module

[FLchainsawJoe]

In need of an electronic ignition module for a SP81. Current one on saw shown below. Not sure what can be used in place of it?
Thanks,
Joe

If you have a ten series with electronic ignition, just see if the coil will fit. If so, you should be good to go with a similar coil. If not, you may have to do some modification. There may be some old posts in the MAC thread about modern alternatives. Ron

Ryobi? Did not find anything.

Go to the McCulloch thread. Then the search function, type in Ryobi and click search this thread only. You should get a bunch of hits on using the coil from Ryobi string trimmers.

Bought the Ryobi but no luck fitting. Here’s a better pic of the one off the saw. Not sure if McCulloch made?

The bolt pattern for that coil matches the points ignition block.



I have not seen an electronic coil that fits that block configuration. You should be able to use a point ignition coil with one of the electronic chips to replace the points, or see if that saw does in fact have the points behind the flywheel.
