I have a 1983 Mercury 50hp 2 stroke outboard 4cyl with thunderbolt ignition that won't start. I bought it used and can't get it started. Supposedly it worked the day before I bought it. I have checked everything I can think of. all plugs get a good spark (bright blue) with brand new plugs. I have verified that the float in the carb is not plugged.(bought a rebuild kit) I have sprayed starting fluid in the carb as well as directly through the spark plug hole. I am getting compression and gas is flowing. No matter how long I turn the key, it doesn't even try and fire. Is there something I might be missing? im on my last leg with this thanks in advance
