I just bought an old runabout with a model # 35459 Chrysler outboard. The motor has never seen salt water, looks very clean under the cowl and starts right up. Once running, it will miss every couple of seconds throughout the RPM range. Compression is 95-100 PSI on both cylinders. I put in new plugs and a fuel filter and cleaned out the carb and fuel pump bowls. The previous owner replaced all of the fuel lines. I'm in the process of making a puller for the flywheel, but I'm wondering what I'll find under there. Does this motor have points or some type of elctronic ignition? There are no coils present on the side of the motor and the plug wires run straight up under the flywheel. I've got a manual for 66-68 models, but it shows coils and a rectifier mounted on the side of the power head.
Thanks, Jim
