As the title says i lost spark in cylinder 2 and 3. It happened all of a sudden not a progressive loss. I can switch wires into the #3 coil pack and it will spark, but #2 will not spark at all no matter what. The motor still starts easy just as you would expect dont run worth a darn. I am mechanically inclined but no experience with marine engines or this particularly complicated ignition system. If anyone has some ohm numbers that would be great. Thank you and and all help is very much appreciated!!!:confused:

Do a compression and a spark test.Get sparkies and install them after the comp test.Then check the plugs for water/fuel.Post what you find.
It's possible the head gasket is bad between 2-3.J

check the stator, both sections should read between 500 to 800 a piece if they show good possible module went south
