I have a oil flamethrower coil with the EI and .85 ohm ballast resistor.
Last week in bring the boat in for winter storage the engine shutdown.
My Son turned the motor over and guess what no spark. Now thinking of all
of the threads on the coil and ballast resistor I was thinking can't be the coil, maybe the resistor or my wiring is bad. Couldn't find my meter so went home and ordered a coil from Moyer as I didn't have a spare. Found my meter and went back to the boat with coil and meter in hand today. Popped in the coil and started right up. I ohmed out the coil and it was open.
We did run the motor hard in going up river to make a couple of bridges. Ran like a top until it stopped like the switch was turned off.
