So I put in a new trigger because one of its wires was corroded at the trigger plate so no repair could be done. Got it back together with the new stator I put in last week. It didn't want to start right away but finally did. While I was trying to figure out why it wouldn't start up right away I pulled each plug to check them. I found cylinder number 3's plug brand new, never fired once I would guess. I put in new plugs first thing when I got the boat.
It's a 1986 Merc75. I swapped wires with number four and no spark. I swapped coils, there's four, and no spark but number three's coil fired in the number four spot. So it's not the coil. It's not the wire. What is it? The motor runs but on three cylinders. Might explain why it runs rough LOL. But what do you all think? Thanks
