About This Product
If your vintage Harley is struggling with weak spark or intermittent firing, it might be time to look at the coil. This OEM-style ignition coil from MCS is a 12-volt, 5-ohm unit designed specifically for points ignition systems. It fits 1965 to 1979 Big Twin and XL Sportster models, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of classic iron. Finished in a clean black, it replaces OEM 31609-65A and provides the reliable performance needed for a smooth-running engine. It is a straightforward, high-quality replacement that helps maintain the traditional character and reliability of your Shovelhead or Ironhead Sportster.
Manufacturer part number: 516815.
