Guys,<br /><br />Have 94 Merc Sport Jet 90 SN# OEO43580(Force powerhead). It just died and has no spark. It has the red stator.<br /><br />I have the Clymer manual for this engine and have some questions it doesnt answer.<br /><br />1) What is the resistance supposed to be between the two yellow wires from the stator and from each yellow wire to ground? Mine has zero resitance between two yellow wires. <br /><br />2) What is the resistance supposed to be between grm/wht or wht/grn and ground wires on the stator? (My resistance between the grn/wht and wht/grn is 600 ohms (correct according to www.outboardparts.com website)).<br /><br />3) How do you troubleshoot the adaptor between the red stator and the switch box? I right now have 120 ohms between wht/grn or grn/wht and blue or black, and 450 ohms between blue and black, and no conductivity between wht/grn and grn/wht.What the heck is that thing (capacitor or resistor???)<br /><br />4) My voltage regulator has no conductivity between either yellow wire and the ground (reversing terminals is also no conductivity). Book says this is not correct, just wanted to confirm.<br /><br />Trigger checked out OK (1200 ohms).<br /><br />So far the only thing I have found out of spec is the voltage regulator. If this is bad, will this cause a no spark condition?<br /><br />Thanks, Ken
