    200hp Evinrude FICHT No Spark

    tps value seems out of wack ... active faults tps is a voltage derived from a variable resistance. ON ETECS it gets 5v from the EMM and a return voltage around betwen 0.15- 4.925 v max value tells the EMM where the throttle plate(s) are positionned. recheck the TPS connections...

    1966 johnson 6hp condensers

    unless you can measure capacitors properly it is hard to tell when and how bad they fail.... barring an obvious short circuit giving you a constant low resistance value it hard to say how bad things are. they realy need to be tested with high voltages to detect leakage between the 2...

    Best solvent to soak parts

    salt can go with boiling it in hot water ... calcium can be dissolved with plain vinigar ..(hotter the better) petroleum gunk can be dissolved with lacquer thinner and some folks just soak in Pinesol. ultrasonic cleaners help or dremmel wire brush
