Hello all,
I recently bought a used boat with a 70hp Johnson outboard. It was started in the driveway when i purchased it and it started great for me the first time i took it out. It now seems really hit or miss if it will start. There is a brand new battery with tons of power everything cranks over really well but it wont actually completely fire up sometimes.
Other times it will start instantly 10 times in a row.
when its running everything seems really good and it runs well.
I am wondering if it could be a faulty killswitch problem? I am just looking for any suggestions of simple fixes it could be before having to take it in. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance!
