While on the water started engine and wouldn't stay running at idle. Hitting the enricher didn't help. I had to adjust the idle up with the throttle cable barrel to over 2000 rpm's and slam it into gear to get back to the dock. Ran mint at higher rpm on the way back.
1988 Merc90 3 cylinder- can get the idle down to about 1000rpm's before it dies.
Dva tests on muffs:1000-1200rpm's
Stator blue(low)178-184v
stator red(high)138
coils(green wire)80-104v
stop ckt 184v
switch box bias 5v
Bias to ground 14,400ohms
Trigger
1 3.1v
2 3.1v
3 4.0v
I then grounded the sparkplug wires and cranked engine-149v on the blue stator wire
I disconnected the blue wire from the switch box, plug wires grounded, crancked it and got 170v.
The manual says I should have 200 volts minimum on blue wire and 4volts or more on Trigger.
Does this look like stator and trigger failing? (All Voltage tests are with dva).
Thanks.
