I took it out on the lake and after it warmed up we idled out of the no wake area and everything was fine. Then all of a sudden after the first time I accelerated the idle speed jumped up but then it would stall out when trying to idle in gear. . The compression checked good on all four cylinders and now I am trying to check the spark. I bought a spark tester that inserts into the plug wire and the other end grounds but so far I haven't been able to see any spark. My remote start button quit on me so I checked the compression with the key switch and the kill switch pulled. I had the remote start leads hooked up to the solenoid, the red to the red and the other to the other contact. Is that right? I hate to play with the idle adjustments yet because it took so long to get it right the first time. It looks to me like something stuck when I accelerated but then maybe it won't idle in gear because one or more cylinders isn't firing properly. Does this sound right?
