Reply To: JW Running on one cylinder only

Thanks again for the suggestions.

I am fortunate enough that I have been gifted a merc-tronic model 79 ignition tester from a small engine mechanic buddy who doesn’t work on “any thing that #@$% old”. LOL

I have four new OMC coils and they all show the similar readings off my multi meter which is not a real expensive one, but I am assuming that they cant all be bad and if the are all reading 4.75 across the secondary that that should be okay.

I will remove everything from the top cylinder and replace the coil condenser points and wire and see if I remedy the issue.

As the old saying goes, “there is no job that is so simple it cant be done twice”
