Hey all, the motor has been running good. Took it up the river the other day and caught some fish. On the way up I lost the top cylinder. Took the motor apart on the river (didn't feel like oaring back for eight miles). No spark at all, there is spark in the bottom cylinder. Anyways, I put the motor back together and it fired up on one cylinder. I made my way back and both cylinders kicked in. I made it back home and took it back apart. I'm thinking it's a coil pack that is messed up. I couldn't find any part numbers on the coils themselves but it does go to a CD2 with a part number of 581926.

I'm going to buy this;

Does anyone have the part number for the packs that go to these? I did take an electrical tester to the power pack and it was reading about 3.5 to 30 volts out of the plug. The other orange wire that leads to the coil pack was getting about 1 to 2. Figured I would just replace everything.

Thanks again!

Re: Evinrude 9.9

Without a model number and year, difficult to say.
Try switching the leads from PP to coils to see if problem/sparks move.

Sorry, I'll have to get the model number off the tag, I know it's a 1979 build. The power pack is odd, has a special connector on the end of both of them. Both the coil packs are tied into the special connector. Another wire then goes from that special connector to the power pack.

You can tell from this power pack;

Round special connectors, I believe one has a three pin and the other is a four pin.

Just purchased part# 9-23103 See if that will help, if not it has to be the power pack.

Re: Evinrude 9.9

Okay, replaced the power pack and the coils and a new stop switch. She's working like a dream, took her up the river and the motor felt like it was when bought new. Problem I'm running into is that I can't shift it into reverse. Neutral seems like that is forward now, reverse is neutral and I have no reverse. I might have to drop the lower end and see if the shift linkage is messed up. Anyone else have any input? If I try to put it into forward it doesn't go, just bounces back to neutral. Good news is we had a good time boating and my sister caught some nice northern pike
