Recently acquired a 1972 Johnson 125 started right up after a few cranks. Took it to water ran fine for about a mile and a half then cut out suddenly. Didnt spit or sputter just died which leads me to believe it's electrical in nature. It cranks but isn't getting any spark. Any suggestions?

Best thing you can do is get an OEM Service Manual and follow the procedures in there. That ignition system can be a "Bear" without a manual or haven't worked on them before.
