'88 Force 125 No Spark

[Barry Kilgore]

X-wife thought it funny to give my 1988 Bayliner & Force 125 away. When I got it back it had been hotwired to bypass ignition & some other goodies done to it. It cranks but but delivers no spark. We've tested ignition & wiring connections. They'er OK. Pulled the flywheel and the stator looks good but the big magnet fell out. Looks like it was slipping on the wheel pretty good. Can I glue it back on to the flywheel? and if so what kind of glue?

In the event of a flywheel failure it is always best to replace it. At 5000rpm a loose part on a flywheel could be fatal. If the mag lets go, the whole flywheel could explode at that rpm.<br /><br />Better to be safe than sorry.<br /><br />TMD

Barry,<br />Yes you can re glue the magnet in place, you will see a factory paint line where the magnet was originally placed you have to put it back in that location. We usually use lock tite quick gel about every half inch inside the fly wheel to hold the magnet in place. good luck, Bret<br /><br /> If you need further assistance please email me @ forcepower01@yahoo.com. thanks,Bret
