    try to measure resistance from plug boots to engine body ... should see 4-8 KOhms solid did you take time to install new stranded solid wire (no carbon resistive stuff !!!) did you test the new coils for continuity on both primary to primary ) (0-1ohm) and primary to HV pin out (4-8Kohms)...

    2000 evinrude 15hp 4 stroke Run 15 min go in limp mode

    have you tried insulating the PP from the engine itself to keep heat away. a few fiber washers to create a space between parts may allow enough heat "prevention" ( I do not know if it can be done or work mind you it all depends if the heat is internal or external to the PP

    Hot light on dash

    unless you can confirm the age of the impeller you may as well tend to it just in case it could be 10 + years old :-(

    2000 evinrude 15hp 4 stroke Run 15 min go in limp mode

    just a Q ? ... is that engine actually equipt'd with a "pre-ETEC" like EMM to actually know... when to go in limp mode (SAFE mode) or is the engine ..."limping" to lower rpm'S because of fuel, air or heat related issue ?

    J6rcrm will shutdown after running for a short time

    Smaller boats have a tendency to raise the bow (front) due to the weight on the backend + motor etc.. so tuck in the motor. If the bow is high and you can't see where you are heading you will know ! small prop nicks can be filed away ... at trolling/fishing speeds it wont matter much ...
