I've been collecting side pull mowers for years as I wanted to convert all my older mowers to pointless ignition Norm but possibly reversing a points coil may work with a Powertorque module ,when a tried a Powertorque module on a standard points coil I had to spin the motor a lot quicker to get a spark.
From what I've read Vm on the Stens Module ,the coil will only work one way but not the other ,so if you don't have a spark with negative earth you change to positive earth on the module to get a spark.
I was thinking the Stens module would work with a negative earth with this coil setup ,must be the same way the Victa modules work .
The Victa module just has one wire connection so I have installed it as standard with negative earth.
The coil can't be turned on it's side as the coil hole is rectangular and not square ,what is difficult to see in my previous images is a side keeper that locks the coil tight on the core ,one image below shows the tab of the keeper at the back of the coil and as it goes side ways I didn't want the tab on the flywheel side.
I didn't take a lot of notice when flipping the coil over on the core but the brass keeper worked with the plug wire up or down.
