    1989 Johnson GT150 No spark!

    What are the common issues with no spark. Bought the boat with a motor that was not running. No spark on any of the spark plugs. Stator? CDI? All coils can't be bad. So is there some easy ways to check for defective parts? Really want to hit the rivers for fishing soon.
