background info:
Bought a decade sitting bayliner jazz in great condition, great compression. no spark,
saw it had a burn mark on the regulator, bad ohm on stator (black).
tested trigger-ohms good on all 3 leads
I assumed spark box was bad
bought a used RED stator-which ohms good-came with an...

okay, I had boats growing up, and I am pretty handy with a set of wrenches so when I decided to get back into boating, I figured that my starter boat could be a fixer-upper, and that was okay. 2 1/2 years ago I bought a 1983 Galaxy 205 for 600 bucks from boat angel on EBAY. Turned out that the...
okay, I have a boat with a LOT of demons I have removed, but every time I slay one, and have a good day there is another demon. I had a mallory points which some bastard converted badly, which I removed and replaced with an EST-read my posts I thought it was the fuel so I went the long way...

I have been thru HELL with this boat-just check my other posts, so I have identified the module as my demon (a new EST kit came with a module that was bad). I swapped it for a module I had and BLAMO it runs and lives for more than 30 seconds. The module I had was from a 1991 truck, but I...
okay I had a mallory distributor and it made me mad so it had to go. I upgraded to an EST and it ran GREAT, until it didnt. I ran it with the white jumper on the timing shunt still connected and I suspect that is where my demon spawned from. I am wondering if that would cause the module to...

I have a 1989 2150 capri bowrider with a merc 305-230HP and a cobra outdrive. I cant get the ignition key to do anything. The gauges do not come to life, no backlight on the gauges, the engine wont crank. I tested for voltage with the key on at the dead man/drunk overboard switch and I have...
