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.

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.

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 !

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.

Worked right of the box. Doesn't run quite as well as the original, most likely a difference in internal timing/capacitance but certainly make sense for the price. Have used 4+ hours so far and have had no issues at all on my F Series engine.Have a replacement of the same kind on Duraforce engines and they perform as well. Not perfect but acceptable for the price.

My 17 year old Gold Series Lawn Boy surprised me when, for the first time, it would not start. A quick check pointed to a bad ignition coil. Armed with the Model/Serial number I started looking online to determine what this part might cost me at one of the local small engine repair shops. I must say I was a bit surprised to discover that this coil sells for around $108. Obviously I did not want to spend that kind of money on an old mower so my next check was on Amazon. I found this coil for about $25 (with free delivery via Prime) and ordered it. I was pleasantly surprised at how fast it arrived. Installation was a snap and my old mower started up on the first pull. Very happy with my experience and I hope this coil lasts as long as the original one did.
