[QUOTE="river warrior, post: 397395, member: 20061"] I have a 1985 force 50hp model# 507x5a. It recently craped out on me. One of the ignition coils cracked. I have tested it with a voltage meter and ohms are way off compared to the coil that isnt cracked. Definitely a bad coil. I have found a new coil on marineengins.com for $175. I have been searching for a cheaper one or a suitable sub. Has anyone dealt with this? Also does anyone know what might cause a coil to crack? You dont need to bash the force motor I already know its s##t I didnt pay anything for it. im just looking for possible symptoms. I dont want to replace it just to have the new one crack. [/QUOTE]
