Check to see that the lead to the key switch or kill button is not grounded.<br /><br />Paul

slyfloyd <br />I am having the same problem. I don't have a manual thaw. I took pictures before taking anything off but now I have no spark. I have a 1970 85hp Evinrude. a69 and 70 are set up pretty much the same why. I was woundeing if some one could email me a copy of a wireing diagram for this area?

I went to the store and got a book today I found that I had one wire not installed where it should have been and the coil was bad. I have the parts on the why and I hope that will fix the problem.
