misfires! Cheap and bad

These coils will cause intermittent misfires in your engine. I had 1 bad coil but decided to swap the right and left motors. Approximately every 2-5 minutes the engines die and misfires occur. Sometimes so bad that they ignite unburned fuel through the air intake. Garbage. Buy a well-known brand so your boat doesn't explode.

Pros
  • Rugged construction
Cons
  • Appearance
