Is this motor new to you?

Motor is toast. Find a different powerhead or motor.

Lmfao at least you made me laugh.

How many 4 strks have you seen rebuilt? Please point me to a 4 strk outboard rebuild kit?

Have you tested the stator? Not uncommon for windings to fail on them.

A pretty common pitch for that motor is a 17" pitch aluminum. You want to prop to 6000rpm

What happens if you pump the primer ball when that is happening? What is your compression?

That compression is doubtful. How much oil was put in the cylinders for the test. Or get a different gauge.

They used to sell that part separately. Maybe find one NOS

You have to have a replacement hub. Those are press fit once they spin they are junk.

Try pumping the primer ball when that is happening.

6 pages and the motor is not running? Time to go to a dealer

Op would be better off taking his motor to a dealership.

Buy a manual. Rent a compression. Tester. Start there. Those motors had trulblesome ignition modules.

Sure

I am out. Until you do the proper tests you will get nowhere. The key way gap is fine a little experience would tell you that. The ops experience is not who I question.

Does spark jump a 7//16" air gap? Done a dva test on the CDI box? Compression is?

Actually no. The shifter has a washer on the shift rod that pulls the fork up in forward only. If the cam pulled out of the lower the motor will be unlocked on reverse and neutral.

You need to be at a certain Rpm in gear and idling. I think around 750 rpm is right for that motor. There might also be mix screws on the carb that need to be opened a little bit. Get a manual for your motor.

Yes an 11" would be better. You want to be over 5000 for sure. And as close to 5500 as you can get.
