Re: 1988 force? 50hp no spark

that is a 88 b model I just went through the same kinda thing with my 88 50hp. I'm not sure how common this happens, but when you get the flywheel off be sure the magnet is not just slipping on the inside of the flywheel. I had to glue mine back with epoxy. It was slipping and I had no spark, no the spark is back.
