Mike Romain
I know this coil pack isn't off a car, it is off a Johnson outboard, but
thought maybe some of you knowledgeable folks might know how to test it.
It is for my sister-in-law's boat that my wife and I get to borrow so I
am trying to repair it for her.
The engine is a 2002 9.9 hp 4 stroke Johnson,...

and trolling use. The other is for trolling ONLY. Get the former and it
works great in a car.

th350 question by
