This problem is killing me! I have a 1987 I/O Mercruiser 3.7 liter 4 cyl 165 HP engine that refuses to turn over. 3 weeks ago I installed new points, plug wires, filters, oil, & grease. The engine started and ran beautifully. This week, however, I turn the key switch and nothing happens. I have charged my batteries, checked my one large breaker, and checked fuses. I used a jumper to short the large terminals on the slave solenoid and the engine fires up and runs nicely. I replaced the slave solenoid and got the same problem. If I can't work this out soon, I'm thinking about installing a push-button switch that will short the slave solenoid to start my engine. Any ideas?
