What could be causing my 120hp force (1994) outboard to not have spark occasionaly? It wouldn't start the first day i started working on it, no spark no nothing. Then after moving wires around and trying to see if there was anything that looked off spark came back and the engine ran fine. I put the boat in the water to swap trailers and the motor ran good, i shut it off after about 5-10 minutes of running and then it wouldn't start again. No matter what i did i couldn't get it to start. Thats how it sits right now, it wont start. What should i check for in terms of spark? Thanks

Could be a stator. Mine was bad, and I could wiggle the wires and it would cut in and out.
