So I finally got everything ready today and set out to the lake. What a disaster. It was too windy and couldn't get the boat started. Wind was blowing me into the dock as I couldn't get the boat started. I thought it was flooded but when I got home I found that I had no spark. I'm suspecting my switchbox but i'm not sure. I was looking at a troubleshooting doc on the cdi website for the switchbox and it's talking about the rectifier. On a '75 650, I was not aware that the rectifier had anything to do with the ignition system. Can anyone speak to the or give me any pointers on troubleshooting a switchbox on a '75 650 merc ?
