I appreciate all the help here. But if someone could point me to a Sierra parts # cross reference I could look up part #’s myself.
Also if 1958 Johnson models would use alot of the same parts I can use Marineengine.com.
Anyway i need parts #’s for Points , Condensers , and Mags for this 1956 J. im trying to restore.
Thank you much for your help.
June 10, 2024 at 1:32 pm #288235Points #580148; condensers #510173 replaced by #580321; coils #580118 replaced by #584477. These numbers are the same for the ’56 and ’58 Johnson QD motors. The marineengine site will give you the corresponding Sierra numbers for each piece. You should know lots of us have experienced trouble with proper fitting of the Sierra point sets and the new BRP point sets aren’t much better. If you can possibly salvage your existing point sets with a good cleaning you would probably be better off.

Original OMC points will have this mark. I always clean, polish and re-use originals rather than trust the aftermarket or the others as mentioned.
