Re: 84 Johnson 115 V4 please help
Sawdust,<br /><br />You need to verify some things.<br /><br />1. Do you have spark? Check by removing a plug, plug it back into the wire boot and and ground the electrode against the head. Turn the engine over and watch for a good blue spark. If it's not there, did someone unplug the kill switch? It's the plastic part that looks like a fork and plugs into the side of the control box.<br /><br />2. Next is to start looking for fuel issues. Do the plugs look wet? If not, start working from the tank to the engine for fuel flow, you'll have to disconnect some things.<br /><br />3. Did the engine overheat? Did you have good water flow from the "telltale" It is the small water outlet on the starboard side of the lower cowl toward the rear of the engine.<br /><br />Let us know-we'll be here.
