no spark

[59_seafair]

I have a 69 55hp johnson, I bought this boat last year. It was stilling for about 20 years so I replaced the impeller put a new harness on, changed the plugs and replaced the lower unit oil and greased everything. I have taken the boat out a few times and other then a slight bog down that was due to the carbs, she ran like a champ. This last time I did take it out though it died on me coming into the ramp. Now at home on the muffs I cannot get it started. I pulled the spark plugs and I am not getting any spark at all.
Anyone have any ideas where to start?

Re: no spark

There are quite a few componets in your ign system, see below. It would probably be a good idea to get the factory manual, it will have trouble shooting sections and all the specs to check your engine.
