i guy's i am a rookie in outbord i have 1985 evinrude 150hp
my problem is i have no spark on all 3 cylinder on the left side i don't have any tester
to test so i do it the old way i star motor and one at the time i unplug the sparkplug wire to the coil and got fire on 3 right side and none on left side so i swicth powerpack
and still do samething and finely i swicht all coil from right to left and still have spark on 3 right side and none on left side

Swap the stator wire pairs from the right bank to the left bank and see if you get spark. If you do the the stator is bad. The troubleshooting info for your engine starts on page 47 of the CDI troubleshooting guide.

I believe that motor has two power packs. Might try swapping them and see of the problem follows the pack...

Do Chinewalker's test first. It's a really simple/easy test.

I believe he's already tried swtiching the pack...does this motor have the diode that causes these symptoms when it fails?
