I recently started having problems with motor not doing more than 4400 rpm then it would kick in and run up to 5400. Checked compression - 119 - 121 on all six. Spark checks good on right bank - 1/2 gap on spark tester but the left bank is sporadic. Top coil 1/8" sporadic. Center 1/4" consistent. bottom 1/8 consistent. Sounded like a switchbox or Stator so I did an ohms check. Red/blue 4.5 Rx1000. Bluewhite/redwhite 80.1 Rx1000. Red/grd 144 Rx1. Redwhite 144 Rx1. Should I check something else before ordering a stator? It doesn't fall within the correct parameters in my manual but I'm new to Outboards. Will I risk damaging the motor further by running it?
