There are diagrams in the book that would show it, if that is what u mean.<br />Magnet; under flywheel is a series of magnets<br />glued underneath the flywheel. If one comes of, it wont run good.<br />Flywheel key; A piece of metal that fit into a slot in the crankshaft and the flywheel,that keeps them locked together. If it shears, it won't run good, or won't run period. It'll act like the timing is way out in some cases.<br />Twisted crank; Twisted Crankshaft at the flywheel's taper...Very rare condition, but <br />will cause a constant miss, or "out-of-timing" condition.<br />Is this the same engine as the one with all the CD modules failing?

Yes, the CD modules keep failing.

Re: 1984 85 horse force outboard night mare

I went thru and read all the posts on your problem,and have no answers at all. It does not compute

<br /><br />What is the number on the plugs?<br />It's possable the plugs are too hot for the CD units.<br />Other than that, the CDMs should hold-up normally. Yours obviously are not? I read that if you put new CDMs in,it runs fine for a while. They then fail?<br />I could see you getting a bad new module,<br />but not one right after the other. That just<br />don't normally happen.<br />I would check the spark plugs, because nothing else will damage those modules. And too hot a plug wont do it overnight.<br />I am stumped.

QL17V chamion is the right plug, so that's not causing this.<br /><br />Outside of checking all wiring at the terminal strip,and the plugin connectors, i have no clue why it keeps eating them.
