I have a J/E 115 connected to a TurboJet drive.
The boat was running great for 10 days. Next morning, it wouldn?t start ? just kept cranking.
Tested the fuel pump, it works.
Tested for Spark and got none.
I had a spare powerpack and swapped them out ? no luck.
Took it to my mechanic, he said the stator was not putting out correct voltage. He recommended replacing it AND the rectifier. I gave him the $$$ Okay $$$
I should have it back later this week.
My question is what might cause this failure? Seems rather odd with no apparent warning signs.
Can anyone offer their thoughts
