    Replace kill switch or bypass?

    1994 Force Mercury 120hp No spark

    Thank you Pnwboat for reply. I do not have a kill switch on the boat, so I assume that it would be located on the throttle control? Thank you, Mike

    1994 Force Mercury 120hp No spark

    I agree that even a new electrical part can be bad, it's happened to me before. Did have the flywheel off to replace stator but not sure if the magnets were inspected thoroughly. Thank you

    Hello, I have a 1994 Sun Tracker Party Hut 30'. The seating came with the boat and from pictures I have seen, look like they came from the company Wise.
