Good morning all. I've had this issue 3 or 4 times now. Driving along and all of a sudden the motor dies. Try to start it right away and no luck. Wait a few minutes and it starts. So this happened again (on Lake Ontario!) when I was about 1km off shore. That's a long way to row. This time I checked to see if there was spark out of the coil by putting high tension lead near the block. I didn't see any spark but not 100% sure as it was real sunny out. But pretty sure no spark. and then 5 minutes later....it starts. Motor temp is OK if not a bit low. Oil pressure OK. Being a 1986 motor, I don't think there are any safety shut offs such as a low oil pressure circuit. Is it possible that the coil is overheating? I know it could be a loose wire ANYWHERE along the wiring harness but I am hoping for a simpler answer. Any help as to where to start would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
