i replaced the stator a few years ago. its acting differently then before when it went.  now with the coils, if i flip the 2 uppers with the lower im thinking it would act differently than it is now if one of the lower coils is bad with this motor?  going to run down the gas lines first for problems but that seems to be the next logical step.  probably a job for the late fall as i dont see taking it out of the water til then.  if its a coil it has to be one of the lower two the way its running
Good luck.. seems like you have it under control.

.. yes..more than the average boat owner..and then some...

I may have a set of coils and a switch box for that 91 merc... I had a 95-115 2+2 that lost a fly wheel and ate the stator and trigger...it was cheaper to buy a used engine than buy a flywheel and ignition system because the flywheel was obsolete and it would require the entire ignition system to be changed.. I stripped the carbs and electrical system off of the motor thinking it was going to fit my 2004 115- 2+2( spare parts not knowing they would not work)... but they changed the electrical system a bit by eliminating the switch box and went to straight CD cols power packs...I'll look and see if I still have the coils and switch box...I also may have a 17 and 19P aluminum prop...I've given some stuff away ( helped a few others in your predicament)..not sure whats left from that motor.. what I do have can be had for the cost of shipping or you can come and get it for free.
I think I have the lower unit off that motor, joe. still working great

Come on guys help out fishlessman.  We now know that the unilateral phase detractors cannot synchronize with cardinal grammeters without magnetic flux disturbance.

If I had known you where traveling in time I would have suggested a leak in the plasma field that suspends your flux capacitor, if your flux capacitor grounds out it will cause random and sometimes drastic drops in rpm,  a real bummer if you haven't reached your destination, a part of you could end up in Jordan bay.

I probably missed it, but did anyone specify the rate of encabulation at operating temperatures?   If the rate is too low, you may have to install an aftermarket panametric fan.

Sorry to hijack fishlessman...all in good fun.

Seriously mac you better do more research..

All he needs is the definition of pre ignition/detonation.  Higher octane is less prone to preignition (combustion in the cylinder before the spark is thrown).

A lean burn whatever that is doesnt produce a hotter flame....a lean situation may or may not cause pre ignition.  There are about a zillion variables that go into what cause knock.  So mac is aware a lean knock is a result of combustion prior to ignition.  Its an explosion for lack of a better description...and the fuel does not burn in a uniformed fashion and does so before the piston reaches TDC and before a spark is thrown.  (In severe cases)

When to your second hobby is putting 20+ psi down a cars throat you learn these things very quickly! 

The solution to this boating issue is Joe.  Joe knows!

I'm a combustion engineer.
40+ yrs.
ME too.


Also built and raced "vehicles" over the years.

Put myself thru college wrenching on engines and transmissions in my dad's auto shop.


I tried to "dumb down" or simplify my response to his original post, as he was incorrect in what he was "trying" to say.

But that's ok.

I'll be busy for a while now.
Out googling sites for "more research".

It's all fun and games until someone melts a piston Mac.
