It seems the spark results differ day to day. All cylinders have fired a few times, only one cylinder sometimes and other times it's a mixed bag. I never know what cylinder will or will not fire. Today I am only getting spark on the #2 cylinder. All variables are the same during the tests. The coils on the dead cylinders have been swapped and the problem stays on the dead cylinder.

Power pack.

CDI or Mallory?

Is one brand better than the other? I have used Mallory products before and they have always been great. I have also found the Mallory a bit cheaper than the CDI.

Any comments on the two would be appreciated.

Thanks,

CDI I know makes them for BRP now as I bought one direct from an EVINRUDE dealer awhile back and it had blue SIERRA connectors on it. There all probably the same though actually as there really isn't a large enough market now for more than one company to make them. I believe CDI has a better warranty on them.

I got the new power pack in yesterday. Put it on this morning and the motor started right up. Problem solved.

Thanks to everyone that helped.
