 Wico XB Dist Pic in reply to joanthan s, 01-15-2007 09:22:33  
Ok Mike M jarred me what you have lol. You probably have the wrong coil for the Wico XB which is a 6V battery distributor ignition and not a XH magneto which it sounds like you have a coil for instead of the XB. Correct coil for XB is 5-5093 or old number X6872 or X6872B and the new coil will still have a black wire, red wire and uninsulated ground wire. Dist cap, gasket, dist rotor, & points are same for the XB dist as for a XH mag. Coils are NOT the same. The new replacement XB condenser using a coiled ground spring under is same as for a XHD mag but a XH mag condenser won't be right capacitance for the XB dist. If you need more detailed XB parts list or instructions email me. third party image

Hello Jonathan, Welcome to the world of tractor collecting - good to have young folks participating!
I think we can answer your question, but we'll have to know what unit is providing the spark. If you look on the side, it will probably say WICO, followed by some letters like C, XH, or XB, and some other numbers. These units all used different coils, so if you let us know the magneto (or distributor if it is a Wico XB) information we'll go from there.
