    No start situation

    That's a cool tool never knew those where a thing. This would show that I have a good gap? Or good spark? Or both? What should the gap of the plug be? I can easily check that again just to make sure.

    No start situation

    Okay, any other suggestions could it be distributor related? If so how do I check?

    Tried this but got no spark at the coil so I am sure I didn't do something right I ran out of daylight I'll keep trouble shooting tomorrow

    Yes cap and rotor both changed. Tried new coils. Orange spark of the distributor will have to try straight from the coil.

    No start situation

    Alright it's not flooding anymore. Put new plugs, wires, coil in today. Still will not start. Poured new gas down the carb to try to get it to go still nothing. Also checked all grounds cleaned and tighten still won't fire off. Did another compression test still the same compression. Unsure...

    No start situation

    Well good to know that is definitely part of my problem then.... Would the mixture screw being turned out 1.25 turns be to far?

    So when cranking it looks as though fuel gathers on the throttle blades. Is that normal? Or is that a drip that could be causing some problems?

    Possibly, how would I check?

    No start situation

    I just replaced the TKS carb with a standard choke style carb. It is getting fuel. I can smell it and see it on the plugs when cranking for awhile (3x10ish second bursts). I'm not sure about ignition it does not have points... So if that is EST then yes that is what I have.

    No start situation

    Hello all, I have a 2006 mercrusier 3.0l I/O. I have had some issues this season with getting it running correctly... It would run but not go past idle without stalling so I did a carb. Now the boat won't start at all it is most definitely spark-related as it won't fire on starter fluid...

    Stalls on acceleration under load

    I have spark. I pulled the wires and checked there and pulled the plugs and checked at the plug all have good spark. The man overboard switch is not tripped I checked that first. Been there before where is would not start. It doesn't cough. Going to try some start fluid in the am and see if...

    Stalls on acceleration under load

    When I pump the throttle I get 2 squirts of gas from the carb. I pumped it 5 time cranked and then pumped 5 more times. I repeated until I opt to stop since it wasn't starting. What should the base setting of the mixture screw be for the carb?

    Stalls on acceleration under load

    New carb came in now the boat won't even try to start I the boat is getting fuel when pumping the throttle it lets fuel into the carb. choke isn't wired yet but it should still start I would think. I also checked for spark, and it has spark, so I am not sure why it won't start. any thoughts...

    Stalls on acceleration under load

    Thank you both! I ended up getting it off by heat a screw driver with a blow torch and then melting the top until I could split it... Soldering iron would have been easier. I figured the crab need to come apart but had the power tune figured it'd be worth a try.... I have order a replacement...

    Stalls on acceleration under load

    Thanks Chris, I will have to give this a check. Although if I get it to go past the 2k that it dies at which it can sometimes it will run fine up in the hire rpms (reving in neutral).

    Stalls on acceleration under load

    Yes, I get to squirts of fuel. However, when the motor runs and throttles up, I don't see any gas. I also went to go put in the rotor today and it is stuck well on the distributer any thoughts on how to get it off?

    Stalls on acceleration under load

    Scott, I completely forgot to answer this.... Fuel pump is in good shape sitting at 6psi. I replace fuel filter, T-stat, and use power tune in the carb. All of which had no effect on the issue. I also replace cap and rotor because the shop had ones in stock and figured it couldn't hurt. I...

    Is there an easy way to check if fuel pressure is good?
