Okay everyone I've went to great lengths to make this a pleasant experience.........BUT now that I get everything together and working on my engine and it looks real good it's only running on the bottom cylinder? New trigger assembly, plugs and switchbox any ideas? Grounds and wiring have been cleaned and checked. Plugs are wet when I take them out of the cylinder yes it's getting gas. They fire pretty and blue out of the cylinder also. While it's running I can take the top two plug boots off no change also 150 psi on each cylinder????????????

You may have gotten a bad switch box. Then no real way to test them but thats the road I would start down. I feel your pain my boat is sitting in my yard and no one can seem to figure out what wrong with in. I would also check the coils for reistance.

Have you checked out your stator? Particularly high speed windings?
