    '87 Force 125HP ignition problem

    Thank you Jiggz !! The Stator is original '87 I had; No fire on any cylinder then I disconnected both kill-wires at stud (separate them from each other) #1 &#2 started firing but (NOT #3 & #4) so I replace pack for #3 & #4 Now nothing fires again. I will check the voltage-output first before...

    50 hp high speed misfire

    A faulty rectifier can cause the ignition-system to misfire at high-speed Are you using the correct spark-plug that this engine is prescribed? Are you running this on muffs or in a test tank in gear? Ideally it would be best to run it on water full tilt for a bit to clear/clean the whole system

    '87 Force 125HP ignition problem

    Thanks Nordin, I built-up a collection of Force outboards & parts over the years. (like to buy them in bulk. lol) I have another 125hp sitting here with a blown piston with a working ignition-system, the easiest way would be the swap the whole assembly over but I want to diagnose what component...

    '87 Force 125HP ignition problem

    Say it loud & proud jerry! :D kidding aside.....when the voltage-test is good, can the stator still be bad?

    50 hp high speed misfire

    Have you tried to see if it misfires with the rectifier disconnected?

    '87 Force 125HP ignition problem

    No fire on any cylinder; - disconnected rectifier - disconnected ignition-switch - checked all trigger-wires/connection = good - checked ohm reading on stator = 745 (have not checked voltage-output while cranking) Now here is where it gets interesting; disconnected both kill-wires at stud...

    Trim motor

    Here's the story; I bought a 1987 Doral Spirit with a 125hp. Force and it came with a spare 125hp. Neither trim motor worked and I was doing a quick trouble shooting why not. hence the misdiagnosing. last night I took the three-wire motor apart to see why it is not working & learned it is build...

    Trim motor

    Hi Chris, I have both (have a few Force motors sitting here) I made my statement based on my previous trim motors. Sorry guys I got confused

    Trim motor

    Yes, I was wrong with this motor

    Trim motor

    Yes, you are correct with this two wire motor :)

    Trim motor

    The relays only control the power supply to either green or blue wire - one wire to each brush

    Trim motor

    Check for continuity on blue & green wires to brushes = good Power applied to either wire, Motor not turning is the ground-path through shaft not there?

    Stick with the torque-values mentioned on the cap

    I bought a 175 Doral Spirit

    Thank you Scott, Any pointers on how to empty/clean the fuel tank?

    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    Run the engine with the positive wire from the rectifier disconnected (leading to the battery) check if the voltage creeps up to around 16 to 19+ volt at the positive terminal from the rectifier. IF it does? its just a rectifier

    I bought a 175 Doral Spirit

    I'm new to owning a '86 175 Spirit and was wondering what are things to look out for as far repairs needed. It has a build-in fuel tank but not being used be the P.O. the motor was running on a removable plastic tank. what would be the best way to clean out for use?

    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    In my opinion.....the most important thing to have is a voltage-regulator. Either built-in with the rectifier Or hooked to the stator. You want to keep the voltage at bay (14.5 max) to protect your electronics. "So my question is can the stator for the 120 charge 2 batteries, is it strong...

    1990 Force 120HP #2 Cyl zero compression and upon opening piston shows damage

    In addition to this; Dash gauges are not the most accurate, for proper reading a reputable voltmeter should be used
