I have a 1994 4 cylinder Mercury 40 hp engine. It will not fire on two of the cylinders, I have determined it is not the coils, by swaping the ones that are firing with the ones that are not. Do you think that it is in the SWITCHBOX?

wich two, if it's 1 and 3 or 2 and 4 its probably a trigger if it's 1 and 2 or 3 and 4 it's probably the stator. too check the stator,change the position of the red and red/white wires and the blue and blue/white wires. if the other 2 clys. fire then it is the stator. if they dont,it could be a switch box.

Thanks Laddiesservice, I will check it out tomorrow. Looks like you are an XNavy man. I retired from the Navy in 1974 as E-7 Air Controlman, kind of miss it every now and then. Good luck and thanks again. BuckD.
