    1989 Mariner, 115hp, four cyl., carb. 9 amp Mod# OC00000268 parts numbers question.

    Ok, got it to the lake, engine started fine, wouldn't go but six mph. Got home ran tests again everything checked fine. took plugs out wired together and grounded, watched all four sparking a few times and one quit. changed the wires around and same thing happened on same plug. The same...

    1989 Mariner, 115hp, four cyl., carb. 9 amp Mod# OC00000268 parts numbers question.

    Ok folks. Took all the China parts out, sent trigger and stator back to seller. None of them tested like the original manual, and I talked to the seller several times about that, but he insisted they were the same and for that model. installed a new CDI power pack, CDI trigger, CDI stator...

    1989 Mariner, 115hp, four cyl., carb. 9 amp Mod# OC00000268 parts numbers question.

    I tried several times to to that. NOBODY knew anything about this system in this area. That is the reason I learned about it myself. Had a problem once before when the engine would crank and run great until I put it into gear and it would die. NOBODY, on line or in any repair shop in North...

    No, attached to the same battery the engine is attached to.

    Well it took out the battery too. so it probably did it from there

    That was a guess. I have only idea about it. I don't know if it's even possible that the stator sent voltage to the power pack, increased it to go to the coils and sent it back through the stator and through the rectifier. I wish I knew, because it killed the power pack, the trigger, the...

    Nope. Had it attached to the same battery the engine was attached to. It actually killed the battery. by the end of the day it had no juice and wont charge up.

    1989 Mariner, 115hp, four cyl., carb. 9 amp Mod# OC00000268 parts numbers question.

    I know. Somehow the stator sent a massive charge through the rectifier which was blown and into the battery which the timing light was attached.

    Yep. the mfg testing proceedure is totally different than OEM tests. been reporting that to the supplier but refuses to except it. I tested the last stator after it blew. It sent a massive charge through the rectifier and into the battery and from the battery to the timing light. They are...

    1989 Mariner, 115hp, four cyl., carb. 9 amp Mod# OC00000268 parts numbers question.

    Ok folks, reinstalled all the CHINA parts and it blew my timing light. Went got a new one, attached it and it blew. The stator is supposed to throw 700 volts to the power pack, but was throwing only 23 volts, but, the 700 volts was being thrown to the charging circuit to the batteries. CHINA...

    1989 Mariner, 115hp, four cyl., carb. 9 amp Mod# OC00000268 parts numbers question.

    question. can you get an accurate DVA reading while just cranking without starting? I have concerns about doing that or running it because if one part is wrong, or out, it could take out other parts of this system. For some reason, half of my information on the tests were not posted.

    1989 Mariner, 115hp, four cyl., carb. 9 amp Mod# OC00000268 parts numbers question.

    I have quite a bit of experience with this ignition system, but this time, much more. I understand that the number after the A is an upgrade, but does all the up grades work on a lower one? for instance a stator for my engine is part # 8779A11. Would # 8778A23 be compatible? I ordered an...

    Mariner dies when shifing into gear.

    Even local tech at a loss! My 1989 Mariner 115 hp, 4 cyl., 2 cycle doesn't like the water! Started working on it 2 months ago. I replaced oil reservoir and the warning module. Replaced poppet valve and thermostat. Compression: 120 all four cylinders. New battery. Spark only on #4...
