Description
Overview:
The H.T. Coil for Wipac Magnetos, OEM S1788, is a genuine Wipac replacement component used to restore a strong spark in magneto ignition systems on classic small petrol engines. Built around copper windings on a laminated iron core and encapsulated for insulation and heat stability, it steps up voltage to fire the spark plug reliably. This coil is intended for Wipac magnetos commonly found on vintage garden, agricultural, and light construction machinery. It is suitable for owners and workshops maintaining older equipment to original specifications. As unused old stock, the coil may show light tarnish or storage marks, but it remains fit for service and is a practical choice when refurbishing Wipac-equipped machines where maintaining authenticity and dependable ignition performance matters.
