    Default Stator or Trigger or both?


    I have a 1986 Merc 25 that bogs after about half throttle, and seems to be getting progressively worse. I am absolutely certain it is not a fuel delivery issue, that was the first thing we checked. I have changed the power pack, coils, and plugs. All I think left is the trigger and stator, which of the 2 is most likely the issue? Or should I just change both as it is a crapshoot and will have the flywheel off anyway.

    ebasic marine is a great place to buy electronics from. They sell different brands but most importantly they sell CDI...I would only go with CDI components for my electronics. They are in my opinion the best. Here is a link to their page...they ship extremly fast also.

But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.” Joshua 25:15

    Yup you can't go wrong with CDI. In many cases their parts are superior to OEM.
