I have a 1996 mercury 150HP (offshore series) motor that has thrown me for a loop. When the trouble first started I ran about 10 miles until it bogged down and would not go any faster than idle speed. Next time I take it out. It runs great for about 20 miles until I let it sit for 2 hours then yet again it would not get on plane. I take it back home and check compression, spark, and fuel. All of which seem fine. On my last trip, it doesn't get on plane at all. Come to find out I completely lost spark in all 3 of the coils on the left side (cylinders 2,4, and 6).
I made sure the coils are grounded well and all connections are tight and still nothing. Someone mentioned a bad switch box? Any advice would be a HUGE help!
THANK YOU!!!!!
