Napa points and condenser
 
What is the quality of the Napa points and condensers for our engines? I want to replace these parts on my 1450 and like the convienence of my local Napa store. Any experience you can share is appreciated.

Have them on one of my 149's for the past 6 years and never the first problem.

Most likely the parts from Napa are Stens or Primeline. Even if they are Echlin, those are all very good aftermarket parts. :beerchug:

I'm using 2 NAPA condensers on my 102 right now for better spark. It's an old hot rod trick I learned back in the early 70's. Haven't tried their points.

I went with NAPA condenser because Kohler wanted $12ea for what Napa was around $5ea for the longer, high capacity condenser.

More than anything for spark, make sure you have good ground and condenser(s) wire is pointed downwards to not collect any moisture to go bad.

Could someone post the part numbers of the NAPA points and condenser?
I want to tune up my 1450 before mowing time.
Thanks, Barry

I picked up the parts from Napa yesterday. I paid$12.49 for the points and $9.69 for the condenser. The condenser is unmarked and the points are marked Kohler.

$9 for a condenser? That's why I don't buy from NAPA!!

Here it's $14.99ca($11.23us) for the condenser and $19.99ca($14.98us) for the point, I never shop at NAPA either, the local CARQUEST always give me a better deal, I know them since the 70's. They use to run under the name Clermont Auto parts in the old day's, G...already 40+ years have pass...:rolleyes:
