I have 2 60hp Johnson's on a recently purchased houseboat at Lake Powell.
I had them all tuned up and had the carbs rebuilt last spring. Both ran fine until it was time to leave. One fired right up. The other did not. Hearing no cranking I thought it was a low battery. I switched batteries and still nothing. After removing the cover I noticed a burnt wire. I spliced it and upon my friend turning the key I watched it fry again.(still no cranking) I do not know what the wire I spliced went to as I am new to the boating world. Staff at Powell at the time I believe mention - rectifier? Any thoughts as to my problem. I will be at Powell in a week and would like to fix this.
