Hi,
1994 60HP 2 cycle blows the 20A main fuse when I try to start. The starter engages, motor turns over for a second or so, and then the fuse blows. The fact that it doesn't blow immediately on turning the key to start makes me think it is not a dead short, but rather something drawing excessive current as the starter engages. I am 1000 miles away from my manual for this motor, but did pick up a cheap multimeter at Canadian Tire so I can do some testing if someone could point me in the right direction.
Thanks very much for any help!
