    That being a motor with the ubiquitous “Universal Magneto” from OMC….I have not heard that per se.  Although there are a lot of issues that could mis-firing at low RPM. 

    Have you duplicated this condition in your motor?  If such a thing is happening you could verify it by spinning the motor over with a drill and observe spark on both cylinders at various RPM’s.

    Assuming you have done the full service of the ignition and mis-fire is occurring;   I would swap components  from one side to the other:  Coils, spark plug wires, points , condensors.  Also check for mag-plate “wobble”;  a condition that can cause point gap to vary.

    Not all coils are “created equal”.  If you have access to a Merc-O-Tronic or Stevens or similar you could check each coil….but swapping them from side to side is also a good test.

    PS:  You might be better starting a new thread regarding this new topic.
