I just got a 1983 evinrude/OMC 90 HP. The previous owner said he could not get it started. I am not sure what work the did on it. The 2 cylinders on the right side have a spark, but there is no spark on the left side top or bottom cylinders. I switched the coils- same result. I swicthed the power packs- same result. What next? Is there any thing else besides the trigger and stater? Can I test these? Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated. I did pull the fly whell and look at them - nothing apparent- ie. visable broken wires ect. Thanks. :)

Manual has troubleshooting guide for ign sys<br />Factory manual at www.theoutboardwizard.com<br />or try ebay<br />Sounds like you are on the right path<br />Did you swap plug wires as well?<br />Someone here may be able to supply resistance values and method for checking stator values.<br />Check back and get yourself a manual in the meantime. Library may have book you can copy pages from.<br />Good luck
