Just got my boat out of storage and ready for our (short) season. I have a 1997 Johnson 9.9 H.P. 4 stroke. Elcetric start w/ controls. Started it up and it ran fine. Never a problem w/ it. Ran it about 5 minutes then shut it off. About an hour or so later, I went to start it again and it flat would not start. Pulled the plugs and they were wet. thought maybe I'd flooded it, so I left the plugs out and cranked the engine 12-15 times to air it out. Now, there doesn't appear to be any spark. The safety lanyard appears to be in it's place and was not touched earlier either. Anyone have ANY ideas? I'm stumped. What on Earth could I be missing?
