Hello,
I have acquired an old Stihl 017. This is apparently an "early" 017. I bought a new ignition coil for the saw. Part# 1130 400 1302 which was prescribed for the Stihl 017. This part did not fit the saw. The bolt holes did not line up. Not even close.
Apparently the "early" Stihl 017's used part# 1130 400 1300.
This part; 1130 400 1300 is hard to find on the internet. The ones I have found are costly and most have additional shipping cost from Europe. The price of the 1130 400 1300 far exceeds the cost of the old saw which runs great when it has sufficient spark.
I have a few questions:
Can anyone confirm that Part# 1130 400 1300 is in fact the correct ignition module for the early Stihl 017's?
Can anyone advise where I can find Ignition Coil Part# 1130 400 1300?
Can anyone recommend an alternative part that will fit and work with the early Stihl 017's?
Can anyone advise a modification to fit another ignition coil to the early Stihl 017?
It would be a shame to scrap this old saw because of the price for an ignition coil ($60 -$100). I am hoping that someone can recommend a solution.
Thank you,
Brian
