Hey all, new to the site and have a few years unset my belt as a boat owner, enough to know when I need help. I'm a novice at best, so be gentle.
So, this season's issue is getting the darn thing to stay running. As I said, when the ignition is on start, it runs like normal but the instant I let it spring back to run, dies. I replaced the ignition switch, no change. I have never done anything electrical, but I do own a volt meter. Can anyone give me some direction on what/ where to start running down the failure? I'm decent with motors, not so much electrical. I have a 5.0 Cobra with no manual for wiring diagrams etc. And not really sure how to proceed. Thanks for your time.
