The Wacker Neuson 5000156551 is a genuine OEM Ignition Coil designed for a broad range of Wacker Neuson equipment, including the VP1340 and VP1550 single-direction vibratory plates, WP1540 and WP1550 vibratory plates, CT36-6 concrete power trowels, PT2 centrifugal trash pumps, and the BFS 614B floor saw. As a factory-original component, the 5000156551 is built to the exact electrical specifications required by these engines, ensuring the correct spark timing and output voltage that each machine's ignition system demands. Verify your model number against the fitment list before ordering to confirm this is the right coil for your application.
Key Features
- Factory-Correct Output Voltage — Genuine OEM construction means this coil delivers the precise spark energy your engine's ignition system was designed to operate on, not an approximated range.
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — Engineered to the original mounting pattern and connector configuration, the 5000156551 installs in place of the worn coil without bracket modification or rewiring.
- Wide Cross-Family Fitment — Covers VP1340, VP1550, WP1540, and WP1550 series vibratory plates; CT36-6 concrete trowels; PT2 trash pumps; VP2050 series plates; WPP1540W and WPP1550W plates; and the BFS 614B floor saw — one part number, multiple machine families.
- Protects Engine Starting Performance — A healthy ignition coil ensures a strong, consistent spark at every pull. A failing coil causes hard starting, misfires, and loss of power under load — all symptoms that this OEM replacement directly addresses.
- Ignition System Safety — An out-of-spec coil can cause erratic engine behavior or failure to shut down on command. Using the correct OEM coil maintains proper kill-switch integration and predictable ignition response.
The ignition coil generates the high-voltage electrical pulse that fires the spark plug at precisely the right moment in the engine's combustion cycle. It works by stepping up the low voltage from the engine's magneto into the thousands of volts needed to jump the spark plug gap and ignite the air-fuel mixture. When an ignition coil weakens or fails, the engine becomes difficult to start, runs roughly, loses power at operating speed, or refuses to start altogether — making coil replacement one of the most common and impactful small-engine service tasks.
