Hi fellow vintage outboard enthusiasts,

I have recently acquired a 1931 johnson k-50 and it needs spark plug wires. I was also wondering if they had condensers for the point or not. If they have condensers where can I get them? Also where can I get spark plug wires for it?

Thank you.

You will have to make the plug wires. You need solid core plug wire. A chain auto parts stores might have it but most don’t carry it any longer. There is a link below to who I buy from. You need to buy enough for both wires and then reuse the spark plug ends. Also search for condenser # DR70T. It has the correct value for your magneto. Tubs.
