Re: confusing force 85hp

Oh sorry...been busy.<br /><br />Multi fire is more or less the CD module firing when it wants to rather that being controled by the trigger.<br /><br />With a white marker...mark the flywheel @ the 3 spots that each piston comes to TDC.<br /><br />Then run the engine. With a timing light on #1 check to see that #1 is only firing at TDC.<br /><br />Do this with all 3 cyl's.<br /><br />If any of the #'s show up @ TDC and somewhere else...that is Multifire. <---Mind you, just the #'s you are testing at the time.<br /><br />TMD

Re: confusing force 85hp

I myself had the same problem, boat ran last year no problems, I lost a needle bearing so I broke it down and rebuilt the beast. Sure enough no luck with the motor when I was done. I eventually narrowed it down to a broken trigger wire at the connection. I would vibrate on and off. Do yourself a favor, snip all trigger ends and connect the wires that way. What a world of difference.
