Merc 9.8 Ignition problem

12-17-2013, 10:59 PM

Hi all,

I have a 1968 Kiekheafer Merc 110 (9.8hp) that has developed ignition problems.
after about .5 hrs running it starts missing on one pot. Replaced plugs to no avail so my next guess is either leads or coils.

Can I still get coils for this engine?

Thanks in advance
