I had my boat out yesterday and the motor ran good started and ran twice w/o trouble. Tried to start it to go to the landing and it would start. THought I flooded it but when I got back home and checked it out and have not spark on all cylinder. What would cause sudden lose of spark on all cylinder? I saw @ mercurymarine that there is a 20A fuse, but havent found that one, yet. There is however a 5A fuse towards the top of the motor that is good. Voltage regulator? stator?

Bob,it was the kill switch. That is one of the first things I looked at last night when I found out it had no spark. The tether always just hang in place (as always) and I never mess with the kill switch. When I glanced at it the tether was there and initially the switch looked like it was in the run position, but after a second look it wasn't. <br />What part of No. Mi are you from Im originally from Mqt. Mi.<br />Thanks for the advice, I may have not looked at the switch again for awhile.
