88 Evinrude 200XP Iginition Trouble

[indakeys]

I have a 1988 V6 200hp Evinrude. (E200STL CCM GXXXXXXXXX) Had the carbs off for rebuild and once back together, I have spark on one (1) cylinder! The middle cylinder on the right bank. Spark there is really strong, but absolutely nothing on any of the other 5. Engine has VRO disconnected, but ran fine this way before the carb work.

Any advice on where to start and/or likely suspects would really be appreciated!

Thanks, in advance for the help.

If you had spark before you removed the carbs, go back and check to see if you forgot to hook something back up on reassembly.

After spending a couple hours on this forum reading I managed to get through a basic diagnostics and ended up with a bad power pack. Although, since I had to clean almost every electrical connection along the way, there is a chance one or more of them was the problem. But, new power pack in place and fired right up.

So, thanks, and back to the water!
