Bare with me,more questions.

I know I'm asking a lot of questions but this site is my go to site
Today I was checking ignition wires for spark , I didn't have spark on the starboard side bottom wire so I pulled it out and it was broken at the coil end, would that cause it not to show park?
Then I went up one plug, disconnected it and the motor bogged down and I had spark ( Good)
Next I went to the top wire ( same side) and pulled the wire and had spark but there was no change in the motor , that's what I'm concerned about What do you think?
Port side checked out good.
It's a 1988 150 Mercury outboard 2 stroke and believe ie or not even with running on five plugs it sounds great
I ordered new wires , two coils and I have the plugs so I'm going to change all of the above.
