Hello everyone! I recently picked up a old 1989 Aquasport with a 90hp 2 stroke Mercury (boat has been sitting for 10 years). I did some trouble shooting and replaced the burned "trigger assembly" and I was in the water the following week with no issues!
The problem I'm having now is I'm getting random starts/spark and I think everything is pointing to the switchbox...... I checked spark and only had fire on 1 cylinder...I switched coils and had spark on all other coils.. so not coils.
I grabbed my trusted Snap-On hammer and lightly pounded on the switchbox and abracadabra it started right up!!
I don't feel comfortable taking it back out on the water until I fix the electrical Gremlin... Any help would be greatly appreciated!
If it ends up being the switchbox, is there a better brand out there? I have seen Teleflex,CDI,Mallory,etc.
Thanks
