Bad ignition coil

Re: Bad ignition coil

Well, I put in the new powerpack today. Very easy to do btw. Took it out, hit 43 MPH against wind, and hit 5900-6100RPM...Great feeling. One thing I did notice was a little backfire on sudden WOT, but it only does that after idling for about 15mins. After first backfire, I will slow it down and do it again, nothing. But it may just be a sparkplug or something. So thank you everyone who helped me with this process. Love iboats.com!

Just for grins, cut out the blue crimp connector that has the in-line fuse in it, and solder and heat shrink the connections.

This is way off topic, but crimp connectors do not belong on outboard motors.

Re: Bad ignition coil

Heat shrink crimp connectors do belong on boats. When you solder any wires on a boat or mtr they will break much easier because after soldering they are not as flexiable as they become brittle and you have many vibrations on a boat/mtr combo.
