I have an Evinrude 18 that I am reconditioning. It runs reallly well at mid-throttle but won't idle. I also noticed sparks under the ignition plate as I moved the throttle. I think I need plug wires and hope this is the source of my idling problem.

Anyone out there have any experience with this problem?
