[moto-x-call]

I am looking to purchase (2) coils Part# JE8856300000 any help would be great - Stephen Cell 708-243-5708

I have found that all you need in the Ohm reading from a good one to match new coil and you can purchase a replacement coil from Dynatek - the mounting will have to be worked out - I shall keep all posted - Stephen

Wow, this is new, usually everyone had these last year.
Here's one last shot, you have to send them an email through this link.
Let us know if they have any, otherwise we're all screwed.

Funny I sent an email already to them - no repsonse yet - also I have a another coil company looking into a match - also a race car mechanic stated worst case he could figure something out but would cost about 3 to 4 hundred dollars

[rattosh51]

Yeah, you might want to call them directly and speak to someone. Maybe they can find out why there isn't any out there all of a sudden, and provide a cross match.

OK boys and girls I hope good news is on the way as i was given an alternate part number and part is on the way - i will keep you all posted with results and part numbers - Thanks Stephen

[moto-x-call]

Good news.......the new coil is on the tractor and working!!!! The replacement coil is yamaha part# 7LY-856040-01 which the only difference is the length of the spark plug wire - short but works!

[rattosh51]

That is excellent news, glad you found an alternate, and thanks for the info!!!

Do you know if this will work on a 6800? And could you check your part#, I called my Yamaha parts guy and he couldn't find the part# you listed.

Thanks

[rattosh51]

The 6700 & 6800 used the same engines, just different deck sizes, so, yes it will work.
Moto-x...who did you get it through?
thanks

[sc6800]

Thanks Rattosh51. Just trying to learn about the mower. It's been a great mower and want to keep it going.

The Yamaha part # 7LY-856040-01 as I stated before and it's a good part number - I have both new ones on the tractor and they are working great - Bilco Carns? Is where I purchased.

 Thanks moto-x-call, I called Canns-Bilco and got one on order.

Note the plug wire is much shorter and I had to cut the plastic fan cover brace a little for one of the wires but hey the tractor is running so I'm happy

[Vectortech]

I think the actual part# might be 7LY-85640-01-00

I hope so because I need to replace a TCI unit also.  I'm taking a chance and ordering one and will keep you updated.

[Vectortech]

I can now confirm that 7LY-85640-01-00 will work on a YT5700. The only difference as Moto mentioned farther down in this thread, is the spark plug wire is just a bit shorter, but it does reach the plug with no problem.  Hope this helps with anyone looking to replace the TCI unit that is no longer available.
