1977 Evinrude 85 horsepower I got have been sitting a couple years. I bought you spark plugs and clean the carburetors out. I bought a new primer bulb and hose connections from the gas tank. Put a new fuel pump assembly on it as well. I'm getting intermediate Spark but if I fire starting fluid in all cylinders it will start and run great until it cuts off. I tested the rectifier and it tested good and I disconnected the kill switch circuit to see if it could possibly be a bad connection but it did not help. I know I need to pull a flywheel and test the satyr and the magnet contacts but any advice would be good
 
No need to pull flywheel to test stator and sensor coils !!----I would load test your battery and take the starter motor apart for inspection !
