    #2 / #5 Cylinders Not Firing

    Got it figured out, and appreciate all the help. It was the CDI unit. After reading some more troubleshooting information in my service manual, apparently the oil control unit for transferring oil from the remote tank to the engine mounted tank is integrated inside the CDI. I found a...

    #2 / #5 Cylinders Not Firing
