1978 "Bayliner Saratoga" with MerCruiser MCM 228 serial #5023202 won't start
Hi. I'm having a problem getting my MerCruiser to start. It turns over and over and there is spark but, for some reason, it still wont fire. I took a spark plug out to check the tip and it's bone dry so i tried putting a little gas directly into the carb. Still dry and not firing.
I don't know a lot about engines in general, never mind marine engines, so I've tried everything i can think of.
