1997 Model E175GLEUE. It starts and runs great, as long as you hold the key in the start position. I checked the key switch, it is not grounding out in the run position. The stator ohms (power coils) are within spec between the orange and orange/black (55 ohms) and it is not shorted to ground from the either of these. This test was done according to CDI, I already bought a new CDI stator. The OMC manual says to check ohms between the brown and brown/white, it should read 1100 ohms. But the meter doesn't change when connected to the brown and brown/white on either the old stator or the new one (?) I do not have a peak reading voltage meter and I do not want to start throwing more money at this. Question, has anyone seen this before? And, would it even run if the power pack was bad?
