    Cylinders 2,4,6 no spark

    I Now have a new issue, I performed a spark test and found no spark on cylinder's 2,4,6. I switched the red and red/white and the blue blue/white wires on the side pack's. The result is the same, no spark on 2,4,6. Does this relate to a stator ? Thank You OutlawzBasser Gemini179DCX
