also it cant be the magnets on flywheel, if one side is firing strong with spark?. i think the magnets are bolted on this flywheel..
Might I suggest you buy the factory service manual and go through the steps.
As Racerone pointed out, you are making expensive guesses, not diagnosing.
Unless you have clear data that points to the next step in diagnosing in the steps outlined, you don't go any further and you certainly do NOT throw parts at it.
Only when you have diagnostic data that clearly identifies it as bad do we consider replacing it.
How outboard ignition works... Stator gets the charge for both the charging system and the ignition system. We are focused on the ignition system part.
With the stator creating the energy for the ignition, the timer base creates the voltage trigger pulse to the appropriate power pack for the cylinder coil to fire with the charge from the stator. The power pack directs the energy to the coil and the spark occurs.
You have one side not getting any fire/voltage.
What are the two possible outcomes of that?
1. Insufficient voltage/no voltage from stator on the wire to THAT particular power pack. (One pair of wires from stator to EACH power pack)
2. timer base voltage issue where the power pack is not getting the signal to fire
You've already swapped power packs and the issue stays with that side, so there's no point in going down that rabbit hole.
Check the stator from each pair of the wires going from the stator to the power packs per service manual regarding Ohms and a short circuit test. If that comes out as good, do a DVA voltage test of each to verify that is within spec.
If both are within spec, that clearly identifies a problem with the timer pickup the trigger of those two cylinders. Why, you'll have to dig deeper.
That can be identified by doing a DVA test on the timer base wires that apply to the cylinders going to that particular power pack.
If you don't get the specified voltage required, there's a problem between the timer base and the flywheel magnets.
