"1975 Evinrude 85hp ran good last season, this year with the spark plugs in I see no spark with the plugs out I get a strong 1/2" blue flame from all 4 coils. The battery is new and fully charged the engine is spinning well over the required 300 rpm minimum. I removed the flywheel and see no leakage of the stator or corrosion on the flywheel surface. All ignition components on this motor are the originals from 1975 (except spark plugs). I did a low ohms test across the sensor leads at the powerpack and 2 to 4 reads 7.8 and 9 to 12 reads 7.6. (I do not have a neon tester) Where to from here? Timer base? power pack?"
