Hello all, I bought a 1999 Pursuit 2260 two years ago that had a blown engine. I pulled the engine, rebuilt it, and now have it back in and all hooked up. It will crank but will not start. I am getting no spark from the coil (I disconnected the coil wire from the distributor cap, put a screwdriver in the end of it and held it close to ground while cranking and there is no spark). There is also only about half a volt getting to both fuel pumps, this is with key on and it is also the same while cranking.
I have removed all of the grounds that attach to the rear of the engine, cleaned them, and reconnected them. When I rebuilt the motor I replaced all sensors, both fuel pumps, both injectors, distributor, cap & rotor, spark plugs & wires, starter, alternator, rebuilt the PS pump, and pretty much everything else is new. I just had the fuel tank drained, cleaned, and have refilled it with 10 gallons of fresh fuel. I filled the fuel filter with fuel before installing.
I do not know the history of this boat besides that when I bought it the pistons had rusted to the cylinder walls from water sitting in them for years. I am hoping its not a bad ECM since finding one would probably be tricky and expensive. I can only find 3 relays, there are 2 small ones right next to the fuel filter housing and a larger one (I believe it is the starter relay) mounted to the starboard exhaust manifold riser right next to where the big circular plug gets plugged in.
I have been an auto mechanic for years so have no problem digging in and testing things
Any idea where to start or what to check?
Thanks!
