Update. Well I thought my problem was fixed but the boat started doing the same thing again. At first for a couple of days I could go the whole outing (about an hour and a half on the lake) with out a problem. I thought my problem was fixed. Now After about 30 min the motor will almost come to a complete stop then sputter then stop. If I wait a few min when the engine cools down it will go again for a few more min. I removed the wires to the coil, all of them, and measured 2.0 ohms across the +, -. Then I remembered that Chris stated that it should be .9 to 1.2 or 1.3 to 1.5 depending on the coil. I read 2.0 to 2.1 cold or hot. Is this enough to affect the spark when the engine gets hot?
Thanks for any help.
