Ignition Problem

[Diver Dave]

1992 Evinrude 50 ex Vro<br />Starts fine,tickover fine but wont rev consistently.When it wont rev if I stop and start it several times fault will clear,when it starts and revs ok cant fault it.<br />Checked fuel system right thro. Suspect sensor coil or powerpack.<br />Can anyone confirm this ?

Re: Ignition Problem

Disconnect tan wire to power pack and try it, also look for bare power pack wires to coils.

Re: Ignition Problem

The tan wire to the power pack sets S.L.O.W which reduces rpms to about 2500, when engine overheats, with the tan wire disconnected S.L.O.W. is bypassed. If VRO disconnected insure all warning system wires from VRO pump and remote oil tank are disconnected and ends taped or covered. The blocking diode is located 2 3/4 inches from large red connector on engine harness.<br />Warning horn must be correct horn, all of the warning horns not the same.
