    72 Evinrude 50hp, No Spark

    I have a 72 Evinrude 50hp. The guy I bought it from had hooked the battery up wrong and fried the stator, it was visibly melted. So I replaced it and the rectifier. I still have no spark at either plug. Should I just replace the power pack and coils. Do you think those could have been fried...
