I've learned alot in two weeks about the electronics of an outboard boat engine! Know what a coil is, a stator, a trigger, switch box, etc. Had spark on one cylinder and none on the others. Pull coils off and cleaned and all tested within spec. Pulled all the wires off of switch box and cleaned terminals. Put everything back and I got spark on all 4 but no ignition. Check ohm readings on stator and trigger. The Trigger readings are within spec but stator I'm getting on 50 ohms on red to red/white (spec 56 ohms) and 1900 ohms on blue to blue/white (Spec 5700 to 7000). Is the stator causing my problem. The engine ran when I purchased the boat for a few minutes. I can't get it to fire up! Could it be fuel starvation? Plugs are not wet! Help!
