Re: chrysler troubles!

Welcome to iboats.<br />I don't have one, and it invites copywright infringement anyway. But the cheapest way to get what you need is your local library. You wont even need a library card, because you cant check the manuals out (reference only isle).<br />read all you want, and when you find what you need, head for the copy machine.

<br /><br />Of cource, iboats has a link to the manual you need, and I have one handy for every motor I own,and then some. They will pay for themselves the first time you try to change the impeller out,or other mandatory maintainence task.

Re: chrysler troubles!

Sorry 'bout your troubles, Troy, but soliciting violation of copyright is just as much against the law as actually copying.<br /><br />The solenoid may be stuck, or the wiring for it improper.<br /><br />If you don't know enough about outboards to track that down you really need to buy a manual and read it before you touch the engine again.<br /><br />Good luck. :)

Re: chrysler troubles!

starter solenoid is about the simplest circuit you have on an outboard. so you should follow JB's advice. if you plan on doing the work yourself!

Let us know where you get the rectifier and how much it costs.
