I'm troubleshooting an ignition problem (no spark on all 4) on my 1973 Johnson 85HP v4 and my Seloc book references an S-80 or M-80 neon tester that I need to properly check out the charging coils and/or the power pack. I can't find any info on where one of these may be bought, can anyone assist with info on how/where to get one, or an alternate tester, or an alternate method to test out these components?<br /><br />I've already located and replaced a bad rectifier, have confirmed proper ground of the powerpack/coils, have disconnected the yellow/black lead to the remote, tried 2 new batteries, so I need to go to the next level.<br /><br />If anyone wants to take a crack at suggesting posibble fixes that would be great too, the most interesting symptom is that twice now, for no apparent reason, I've had it pop a few times, then even start and run smooth for a few seconds, then cut right out and not start again. I've removed all 4 plugs and checked spark and there's nothing, nada, zip (though of course there is obviously spark for those few seconds when it pops/runs). I've tested it many times and only those 2 times did it appear to want to start.<br /><br />I'm thinking a marginal component in the powerpack or the stator/charging coil assembly, but since these are kind of pricey items I'd like to be sure before I buy parts.<br /><br />I had the flywheel off and did a visual inspection, buffed off the light rust on some of the magnetic surfaces under there, nothing looked amiss, no leaking goo, wires look good too.<br /><br />Thanks all,<br /><br />Jason
