Evinrude 55 1978 2cyl,starts fine idles fine,when rpm is increased the engine will missfire,or 'pop' then will lose speed or die altogether.

Will then start up again fine!

have changed cd2 unit and coils

cleaned carbs but is no better,have been told this could be the high speed coils in the stator,is this a possibility? i do have a second hand stator and trigger assembly that i havnt fitted yet

any help would be much appreciated! :)

Have you done a compression check?
