Re: Merc Sportjet 90

they were notorious for having the stator go out. 99% chance that is what it is. I believe they changed colors to show if it has been updated, IIRC red are the new ones, black are the old? (have to search around to confirm that)

He speaks the truth , test the stator , the newest part number is 835075a21 , there are a series of tests to run , first disconnect the kill wire from the switch box , kill wire should be black with yellow stripe . If spark returns then post up and we can go down that diagnostic tree . It probably will not , You need to remove the flywheel on top of the motor USING A PROPER PULLER (they are available at Auto Zone for like 15 bucks) and post what color the stator is . Also head out ot LOWES and get a multi meter cause you are going to have to take some readings to find what is bad ... Get this done and post up we can go from there ... Bob

PS send me an e-mail with your e-mail addy and I can send you some tests to do
