3120xp coil

[TREED]

Hello all.
I have a Husqvarna 3120xp with a bad coil. I am not sure exactly but I think it is from 93 or 94.
Can somebody point me in the right direction. I am reading a lot of conflicting things about this dilemma.
Thanks! Also, if you are interested in buying it make me an offer.

Cutforfun will have a better answer, but there is a rev limited and a non rev limited coil, and possibly variants there of. You wan a rev limited coil in that saw, it's known to have rod problems!

The limited non-limited info I read. The rod problems........never.
We used this saw for about 5 years without issue. Then the coil failed. We stopped fighting with the fat butts anyway.
Any links would be appreciated. FRED

Need more info on OEM you have to match up OEM. But I know you can put a 272 coil in it and pull the flywheel, remove keyway and reset the timing to go unlimited.

Pic in this thread shows where to have flywheel reset. The rest you should know. Top dead center piston first and then set. http://chainsawrepair.createaforum.com/husqvarna/husqvarna-3120-coil-swap-272/

Just thought of something. Randy aka mastermind may have a stock oem coil from one he has swapped around on a build.

Thanks alot. I keep running into dead ends.

What dead ends? Give me your coil number or just throw a 272 coil in it and retime. My stock rev limited around 10.5k coil I gave away.

What country or state you live in?

If it is this one you can get at your dealers for $104 503138501 http://www.ebay.com/itm/Husqvarna-5...569?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item1c194de109

Need to make sure what you have..............................................I'm just guessing on this end by your 93-94 post. What does the metal tag say?

Perfect. Thanks.
The local Husky dealer said they couldn't get it for me. So I started searching parts sites ect. I only saw coils for 2001 and up. I was trying to avoid the 272 coil option if possible.
Thanks C4F.
