    1987 125 hp force stalls in reverse

    Boat runs fine in neutral and forward. If I go slow and feather the throttle in reverse it tends to stall. I've bumped the idle up seeing if would help but didn't.

    1987 force 125 plug wire question

    My main thought currently is the plug wire going into coil. As the no.1 wire can twist inside the coil. I gave a lil tug and feels like it is still secure to coil.

    That's all I was wondering. I have one ordered and hoping it's a simple procedure.
