    Please help, no spark and so lost

    1978 Evinrude 140 V4 Only firing on 2 cylinders

    With all that corrosion it could be a wire but after cleaning up the wiring swap the coils from one side to the other and see if your problem follows. Your boat looks fast!

    98 Johnson leaking hydraulic fluid.

    You don't need a manual for that....they all work the same. Believe it or not the pumps do burn out. Find a used one or replace the pump.
