Apart from any technical difference that may exist, check the coil plugs are compatible with your machine as there both 4 and 5 pin versions in use. Regards ss47

The coil is 5 pin?
Quick look on Pentechnic's, Hawkeye is 5 pin.

Polo coil is I believe is concentric, any idea if the coil on the Hawkeye is DD or concentric, if DD would probably need tuning, Pentechnic's would have the answers.

Tesoro legacy machines used two types of coil

so you can't plug the wrong one in they have different connectors


makes no difference if its concentric or DD

Machines with a ground balance will give good performance on any coil fitted that have the correct connector

machines without a ground balance will work but might not be optimal. However the odds are it will work fine without any internal adjustment.

slightly of topic but if you see the 5.75" concentric at a Good price I pick it up.

The one I had was stunning.
