50 HP now is a non-starter all of a sudden

[barrythedude]

worked great, new plugs, wires are tight, pee-hole good, but now, no-start = barely showing voltage on coil triggers (says it should be 210 V?) but whirls like a chopper, just no spark. I have checked the switch box and seems to be good (no connectivity on red/blue and ground) Any ideas? I am so mad at this motor...

First - Disconnect the yellow/black wire on the switchbox -re try

I will do that - what am I doing this for?

Just isolating the mercury switch as a culprit?

wire off the switch box didnt work, made sure everything was tight. Darn
