    Vesselview ungiven values

    I have a 2016 mercury 115 four stroke that I recently installed the vessel view mobile module on. I'm really happy with this thing. It's shows almost everything you'd want to know. My question is about what it's not telling me. The app shows oil temp that's always -6f and sea temp that's thats...

    1997 force 120hp compression

    While fixing one problem a new problem was found. While fixing the bad stator I found out my compression numbers were not very good. From top to bottom my compression is 142,149,151,151.

    1997 Force 120 won't restart.

    My 1997 Force has been sitting for about two months since I had it on the river last and it ran fine and everything preformed as it should.

    How many different things can go wrong with a starter?

    #3 cylinder, good spark - no fire

    I have a 1997 Force 120hp. The third cylinder down has no fire; however, there is spark. I've checked the coil and the plugs. The #3 plug appears to be a lot cleaner than the others. I'm not sure if it has water or just unburnt fuel on it. I've read other threads that suggest exhaust...
