Hello,
I need help with my 1999 25 HP Johnson. It had spark before and ran in the barrel. One day I got it on the water and started at the dock for 5 minutes. Then it died. Brought back home, check the spark, no spark all 3 cylinders. the kill switch is OK. People think it had bad Power pack # 586472 L. I would like to know how to check it before putting money in a new power pack since it costs a couple hundred bucks to replace it.
Also CDI power pack is cheaper than OMC OEM part. I prefer to go with CDI but need an opinion about it.
