I need a new coil for my 40 yr old 028AV. The only replacement I can find for the origional double pole coil are those with only one pole. Will these work as well? The ones listed are for the model saw I have. My local Stihl dealer said, "I can't imagine it would work." I can't imagine why not. Any advice?
 
Does not some older 028's with points take a different coil?
It is different but can be replaced by the common 1300 module bypassing the points altogether. Mount the module,adjust the air gap and cut the wires from the points, the saw is now electronic ign.

This. I just went through this with an early model points 028.

Got a HIPA coil from the 'zon, bolted on, runnin' loud and proud now. I left the points/cond in place and just snipped the lead.

Also, thanks for the service manual Harley!
