"Has anyone had any issues wit
"Has anyone had any issues with a flame thrower coil getting hot and breaking down, causing weak spark, or no spark at all?
I have what I thought might be a fuel issue. The engine runs good at rpms below 3000. I can cruise all day at 2500.....As soon as I bring up rpms to 3000+ it will die within a few minutes.
I tried the jerry can method, hoping the antisiphon valve was the issue. NOPE!!!!
Had the boat out yesterday,running on a gas can. We cruised at 2500 rpms for about 10 miles.
When we got within sight of the ramp, I opened it up. Had her at 4000 rpms planed out. It ran awesome for about 15 minutes....Then it died.
I checked the spark from the coil, and it was VERY weak. The coil was hot. I let it cool down for about 15 minutes, then she fired right back up and ran good again.
Has anyone had this issue? I am going to get another coil saturday, and mount it away from the engine.
But I am very curious to know if anyone has had to replace their coil due to the same issue.I have had this coil on the boat for a little over a year."
