    1988 50 hp force no spark?

    Yes you have to glue the magnet strip back! It will move again if you not glue it. Glue it back with super glue or epoxi glue. Clean the surface as best you can then a thin coat of glue and put the magnet strip back in the right place.

    Chrysler 75hp, need direction.

    Do not know if you open up the gap or closing it when retard, To long time ago I did it. But I think you do not have to screw the timing screw so much to get much retarding.

    Chrysler 75hp, need direction.

    Yes I know that type of sticker. When you says your engine fire at 87# teeth are you counting the tooth CCW from 0 teeth?

    Chrysler 75hp, need direction.

    Is your sticker for 32 dgr in the right place? 360/97 = 3,711 (each teeth is 3,711 drg). 97-88 = 9 then the 32 point is at 9x3,711 = 33,40 dgr. Your timing is 87# teeth, that ends up with 97-87 = 10. Your timing is set at 3,40x10 = 34 dgr, a bit too advanced. I would suggest you to retard it to...

    Chrysler 75hp, need direction.

    Yes left of tab are higher advance as the flywheel turning CW. If it sparks earlier before TDC it is more advanced. I suppose your timing plate (tab) has five lines. The one in center is 0, the two to the left are +4 and +2, the two to the right are -2 and -4 (from left to right +4, +2, 0, -2...

    1988 50 hp force no spark?

    Blue fin is the copy of my comment in the top of this thread from another thread from you? Got confused with your comment in post #11. However the stator output should be 180VDC DVA or more. Before buying a new stator check the wires from the stator from crack, bad insulation etc. Check the...

    Chrysler 75hp, need direction.

    I have not worked with those carbs lately so not really sure but I think the tab should go up not down. I do not think you can put it in wrong way, cause the float will not work the wrong way. It will stop against the casting or the bowl. But I can be wrong in this case.

    Racerones tester is a cheap simple one and good enought. You can make one by your self and a one you can adjust. A base metal sheet and a screw that you can adjust the gap. If you use a M4 (metric screw) you can just thread a spark plug adapter to the screw. Or buy a spark tester from the web...

    Two stroker do not have valves as a four stroker. It have reed valves and they can be mounted in different places depending on brands. Chrysler/Force has as V-reed mouting base assembly behind the carbs at the intake manifold They are like paddles made of stainless steel (Swedish from the...

    Chrysler 75hp, need direction.

    Do you have the timing plate bolted at the block or/and do you have a sticker at flywheel with a 0-line and four other lines, +4,+2 and -4, -2? Otherwise you can count the teeth at the flywheel, divide it with 360 and you know how many teeth 1 dgr is. Multiply with 28, 29 or 30 and you know how...

    1973 4hp Evinrude

    As tphoyt says the impeller is not self priming. The impeller housing need to be at least 3-4 in under the water line.

    Chrysler 75hp, need direction.

    You can also set the timing with the throttle rod disconnected. Pull the rod off, be careful not braking the plastic connector. Turn the distributor/timing plate CW to full advance and check with the key in ON position by turning the flywheel CW and the top plug grounded when it sparks. Timing...

    Chrysler 75hp, need direction.

    Set idle in gear to 700-800 RPM. Idle out of gear about 1000 RPM. Setting the timing is simple. You do not need to have it running. Pull the plugs, set carbs at WOT if you have the throttle rod connected then distributor is set at WOT too. Turn the key to ON and turn the flywheel in CW...

    Chrysler 75hp, need direction.

    I suppose you have the Motorola Magna Power I ignition system as we have talk about the preamp in the distributor earlier in the thread. Do you have surface gap plugs or regular plugs with a bent electrode? This system should have surface gap plugs. Have you set the timing at 28-30 dgr BTDC at...

    1962 5hp sea king water pump

    Try to get some pics. I think this engine is a OMC (Johnson/Evinrude) engine. The old Johnson/Evinrude smal engines (5-10Hp) you have to pull the power head to drop the LU.

    CD boxes and coils

    I do not think there are no difference in them, but not 100% sure. The black are older the blue newer. I have seen engines mixed with black and blue and both CD boxes and ignition coils. Maybe jerryjerry, topgun, forcepower or other guys with experience in these engines will chime in.
