Sierra Power Pack 18-5784-1 for 1.6L Outboard Engines (1986-87)

The Sierra Power Pack 18-5784-1 is an ignition power pack built as a direct replacement for the electronic ignition module on 1.6L outboard engines from model years 1986-87. The power pack is a core component of the engine's electronic ignition system, controlling the timing and delivery of spark to keep the engine firing reliably. As the original power pack ages, outboard owners commonly see hard starting, misfires, rough idle, or a complete no-spark condition; swapping in a properly matched replacement like the 18-5784-1 restores correct ignition function without the guesswork of sourcing a used OEM unit.

Sierra manufactures this power pack to match the fit, output, and mounting configuration of the original equipment part used on 1.6L powerheads for the 1986-87 model years, so it installs using the factory mounting points and wiring connections. Because power packs are engine-size and model-year specific, confirming your engine's displacement and model year against the fitment listed below before ordering is the best way to make sure you get the correct part the first time.
