Having fixed my throttle pivot problem a few days ago, I still have a no-start situation. Using an ignition analyzer, I'm getting consistent spark from cylinders 1 & 3, but only intermittent spark on 2. When spark is indicated, cranking speed goes up, and the motor almost starts or starts for a few seconds.
1. Would this troubleshooting procedure be useful? http://forums.iboats.com/force-chrysler-outboards/mechanic-says-its-trigger-624079.html#post4350050
2. The CD boxes and coils on my motor, an '87, are blue. On my spare motor that ran when I bought the boat, an '88, they are black; I also have a spare set of black components but they came in a box so I don't know what's good. Can the two colors be mixed? I know the connectors between the CD boxes and coil are opposite, but are the parts electrically equivalent? I also have the trigger and stator from the spare motor, and a set from the "goodie box."
