    68 Johnson 9.5

    1976 Evinrude 6hp..only getting spark in one cylinder.

    6hp is a great motor and points are also a good system why not reinstall the points clean / gap them properly condenser may be bad keep coil wire away from the cam lobe ! test secondaries... boot to frame 3-7 KOhms depending on coil make
