Lawnboy Ignition Coil 100-2948 682702 683080 683215 New Style

Good replacement part 😊

I am very pleased with this coil. I checked a source that I have used before to find a coil for my 20 yr old Lawn Boy Gold Series 5 hp mower. They carried only an original Lawn Boy coil, at $93 plus shipping from TX. New mower time maybe?? Why not check Amazon...wow, here's a well-reviewed 3rd-party direct replacement at less that 1/3 the cost. I ordered it late on a Friday, the seller shipped the same day, and I received the new coil in the mailbox before Noon on Monday. On my model of Lawn Boy, I removed 4 screws on top, closed the gas flow, removed the gas line, pulled the top cover/gas tank and the coil was right there. Two screws, one wire, one spark plug wire...took old one out and put new one in within a couple of minutes...checked the gap between the new coil and flywheel with a credit card...tightened it down and put the top back on...connected the gas and turned the gas on (open). After 5 pumps of the primer bulb, I gave a pull and zoom! Runs great and boy am I happy that the lawn never had a chance to get out of control. I highly recommend this item and it is very easy to change with just a screwdriver. Looking at YouTube just now, I see there are several videos, some better than others, showing how to change a Lawn Boy coil. So, if you are concerned about how it's done and whether you can do it, look for 'Lawn Boy coil' on YouTube and see how easily you can fix your mower coil. If your mower dies when it gets hot and then starts again when it has cooled down, or runs intermittently, you probably need a new coil. This coil is a great product and you CAN do it yourself.

Worked great on my Lawnboy model 10520 with the F series engine.......magnetic gap setting for my mower was .010 in.......from what I found online, the gaps used are either .010" or . 014" for all Lawnboys but try to look up your model's gap yourself. I saw that business cards are used too but that seems a little wide to me.I used a Sharpie to mark where the magnets were on the flywheel, then took the .010" blade out of my feeler gauge and slipped it between the coil and the flywheel magnets.....let the magnets pull it all together and hold things, then just tighten the screws and pull out the feeler gauge blade and you're all set. Only other thing to watch out for is not knocking the spark plug wire boot back off when you're putting the tank back on !

This was an easy inexpensive fix for my 20 year old, Lawnboy model 10401, 19"push mower. This model mower is very easy to work on and basically if you know you have a good spark plug and your mower has no spark this is the part you need. Turn the gas off, remove the gas line from the gas tank, remove four sheet metal screws on the recoil and one on the gas tank and carefully lift both out of the way. This fully exposes the flywheel and ignition module. This module is all there is to the ignition system and is held in place by two small bolts. There are various YouTube videos going through this replacement. Depending on your mechanical ability it shouldn’t take you more than 20-45 minutes to do.I plan to purchase a spare as this mower just keeps going and going.

I should know better, aftermarket Quality. Didn't fit right, but the real problem is it dosn't work. the original worked for 37 years, this aftermarket didnt work for 2 min. It was capable of producing a weak spark out of the package, however after the first few pulls the spark was all used up and I am back to needing a good replacement part.

OEM Lawnboy coils are >$100, last a 5-6 years before failure due to known defects, and this one was under $20 and gets you going.I am not an advocate for the influx of cheap imported knockoff merchandise we are being fleeced by, but the OEM coil was made in EU and is six times the cost, and the supplier has apparently done nothing to correct the long standing and well documented heat failure issues.Only main difference I can see in performance is that the motor runs slightly rougher at full throttle than with the OEM coil, probably due to a timing issue, but it starts on the first pull and goes. And for the cheap price you can buy a spare and keep it on the shelf.Recommend.

It lost a star because of positively glacial shipping, otherwise it gets the job done simply and elegantly.In the case of the S19ZPM LawnBoy engine (on a model 680542 mower) all that was necessary was to remove the combination gas tank and shroud held on by a bunch of phillips head screws. The magneto is held on by two quite accessible bolts. It's quite simple.One thing you might want to do is take a picture or make a sketch of the old magneto before you remove it. This magneto did not look anything like my old one so it took a bit of puzzling to get the replacement fitted in.

My 2-cycle Lawn Boy is nearly 20 years old. It's a very treasured piece of equipment to me. I bought it new.The first ignition coil failed at Year 3 or 4, but was still under warranty. No big deal. At around Year 12, the second coil failed, and the part was $100, plus labor. The needed repair was still well worth it.This spring I recognized immediately that I needed another new coil. But should I spend a couple hundred dollars on a 20-year-old mower?I was very pleased to find the new part on-line, and it only took me less than 15 minutes to install it myself, having never taken the mower apart before. What a great part and great value. I just hope they'll keep making these available for at least a couple more decades.
