i bought an old jon boat it came with a 1980 evinrude 25 hp motor. 1 cylinder has spark but it seemed weak but the top cylinder has no spark. from previous experience i figured it was the coil and i replaced both coils. However it still has the same problem. I did a compression check and both cylinders have 125 pounds on my compression gauge. I dont want to just keep changing parts that wont fix it
 
Try switching the primary wires (orange) between the two coils. If the spark switches to the other cylinder then the powerpack is likely bad.
