Re: 94 115hp Evinrude no #2 spark and crossfire
Quick question! I've forgoten but help me remember. Does this motor have QuickStart?? I'm having brain-drain and remember that most if not all of the 90 degree crossflow engines didn't but if you have a two wire temp sender on either the port or starboard temp/cylinder heads, then you do have QuickStart. Now, if you do, and the engine is still in "warm-up" mode, QuickStart will have the timing all cattywhampus and inconsistant with a timing kight!! To eliminate it, hook a jumper wire to the white with black stripe wire coming out of the temp sender and into the wiring harness. That will turn off QuickStart and allow proper checking of the timing! So, you need to check this! Perhaps the motor IS too cold and QuickStart is always on as it never warms up??? BUT, if the flywheel key is not shear'd, (check the #1 piston is at TDC, with a screwdriver and should match up with the pointer), it's either the timer base (not likely) or the pack (more likely).
