  • Ignition System on a Crescent 500 CS

    Could use some help with my Crescent that I am restoring. The ignition system on this one is a later design unfortunately it was in pieces when I got the outboard with all the wires broken to the pickup.

    So my questions are:

    Whats the brand of this ignition?

    Does anyone know how it should be wired or more detailed photo of a Crescent with this ignition system.

    Thanks
    James

      Thank you for the response Dean, I have been in contact with Dick and he has been help in some respect to the restoration. But I still need more insight. So if someone recognizes or is familiar with this type of ignition. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

        This was a Swedish ignition that came on the engine when Volvo bought the company they scraped the engine but it is simply a magneto sensor ignition much like what Konig and some of the new pro motors use. It was easier to adapt a merc super spark ignition on the motor that was used on the 3 cyl merc 650 engines.
