1990ish 30 hp johnson no spark

[csherrill2]

I am working on my fathers 1990ish 30 hp johnson outboard. it has been parked for about 4 months, and just recently winterized and changed the water pump. wanted to test run it to make sure everything is right, after messing with it for a while I have found that it is not firing from either cylinder. I doubt it is the coils since both of them are doing no fire symptom. I have replaced what feeds power to the coils with another one off a spare 25 hp that we use for spare parts. nothing. I am stumped and have no other ideas of where to go. any help is appreciated.

NEVERMIND.... someone let the grandkids play in the boat, and well they found the kill switch... searched around on the internet and said that might have some problems so I looked at it first... clipped it back on and runs like a champ. what else can I say? LOL:facepalm:
