I had a similar problem with my ’51  25hp Evinrude.  I did a complete rebuild, slipped it into the water.  It started hard when it finally came to life it popped and farted something awful!  After a couple WTF’s and threatening some hammer time.  I calmed down and started over.  It had a bad new condenser!   The wires points coils and condensers were new.  I replaced the whole shebang.  Something to check!
