I'm scratching my head with this. I have a 83 johnson 60 up. Ran fine a year ago. Winterized it, went to get it ready in spring and noticed the fuel pump was leaking. I replaced the fuel pump and brought it to the lake only to find it idled great and ran fine at slow speed, but would not power up and plane out. I started with new gas, but that didn't help. Next I looked at plugs, which were good. Eventually found that if I pull upper plug wire while running, engine dies. I changed plug, wire, coil, and even tried a new power pack, but still have a dead lower cylinder. I haven't put a compression tester on it, but did pull the plug and run it and I couldn't hold a thumb over the hole, so I have (some) compression. I did notice that bottom carb is leaking, not sure if it's related to the problem or not. All I can figure is that I'm not getting strong spark at bottom cylinder, or its getting starved for fuel. Clearly I'm not an outboard mechanic, but would like to fix the issue myself. Any help would be much appreciated.
