    1995 Force 50 Turns over, doesn’t start

    Just wanted to give an update. I ordered a stator off of DB electrical. It was just under $200 shipped. Arrived in a week…..I installed it today and the Motor fired right up. Other than needing the idle adjusted it ran great on muffs. Tomorrow I plan to to run it in a tank of water for a while...

    1995 Force 50 Turns over, doesn’t start

    Thank you, the key was there but it did look like it was short. I’ll have to double check that…. I didn’t see it at the top of the flywheel but it did line up with the slot.

    Hello, I am located in Southern California. The fuel is new. I just put it in a month or so ago. Also I did try starting it with shooting a little starting fluid into the carb. I can hear the primer clicking when I push the key in but today I will take off the hose and see if it shoots. The fuel...

    Hello, So I took the readings off of the stator. The Youtube vid I found off of the page cleancarburetor said between the red lead together and the blue leads together should be 80-100ohms….the yellow leads together should read around 1.4….these are my readings with Red wires first, blue wires...

    Great, so I did try lifting that lever. I guess I tried the way I was supposed to. Next is testing the electronic components. I just wasn’t sure about his instructions, hence the thread was started. Again thank you all for the replies and I’ll update when the Stator is tested.

    Thank you very much for that information. That is what I figured and have been trying but he kept telling me to push throttle forward and only pull that up after it starts to give it the faster idle. I’ve tried both ways…again thank you. I’m going to test the stator tomorrow at work. I’ve been...

    The lever on top of the control box ----Between the big handle and boat.-----That is the fast idle / throttle only lever.----And it is clearly identified as such.------If spark will only jump 1/8" then really you have a " no spark condition " and motor will be difficult to start

    Also here is the spark on the two cylinders. They will jump about 1/8 of an inch but not 1/4.

    1995 Force 50 Turns over, doesn’t start

    First of all, I wanted to thank you all for your replies….. I did try to start the motor with a brand new tested Red Top Optima. I also tried to start the motor with my car battery attached to the motor battery as well. I talked to the original owner and he said to put the throttle forward 1/2...

    1995 Force 50 Turns over, doesn’t start

    I tried the spark plug tester where you can adjust the gap. Couldn’t jump very far. Maybe 1/4 in. I also took the flywheel off last night so I can check the magnets and the magnets were still glued in position as well as the wires looked ok.

    Hello all, This motor is pretty new to me. My prior outboard experience was a 25hp Mariner I had on a 13’ Whaler. Only did mechanical work never electronic….Here is my dilemma. I purchased a newer boat with a 1995 Force 50 w/tilt trim….it started right up when I went to see the boat. Hadn’t...
