" I am looking for the cause of the engine working (giving spark to the spark plugs one day) then not giving spark 2 days later. All that was done is that I docked the boat, then no "juice" to the plugs 2 days later.

Thanks. "

"Don, unfortunately you have one of the Sports Jet with the faulty stator/rectifier assy. They were big failures with that motor. They were covered under warranty a few years back, but have since become the owners responsibility, even though the manufacturer of the parts (not Merc) was at fault. You need to take it to your dealer to have repaired under the "red stator" bulletin.

" I have had a simmilar proble

" I have had a simmilar problem that happened a few weeks ago. I was out runing arround and the engine just cut and would not start. The Symptoms were just like the kill switch was pulled and what Don Sanders is describing above. I checked the switches and they all seem fine. I took it to the dealer (who knows nothing about sport jet 90's) and is stalling on the repair. Would this still be the same problem (common sense tells me yes, however I am not familiar to jet drives.)

Thanks,

Jason "
