    86 85hp force, #1 cylinder issues

    Thank you. Standard magneto has very good prices. I messaged them about ordering parts and shipping. Very much appreciated. Since the stator builds charge in the ignition modules, think I’d be able to use one output to charge 2 modules?

    86 85hp force, #1 cylinder issues

    Hey I’m in Quinte West Ontario. I’ve looked online and only parts seem to be off eBay. Though most sellers are selling as “as is”.

    86 85hp force, #1 cylinder issues

    Awesome I appreciate it. The dva tool is that the same as the tach tool? The tool I got from work tested spark, rpm and voltage by using a capacitive tip. I place it against the spark plug wire to use it. Also if it turn out the stator is off on one section could I split the wire and use it to...

    86 85hp force, #1 cylinder issues

    Would you happen to know if there’s a test I can do or what kind of voltage I should see off it while running? I could use the sharp test leads from a multimeter and probe each output. I’m just not sure what voltage comes off the stator other than being AC. Thank you

    86 85hp force, #1 cylinder issues

    I got a 1986 85hp force 3 cylinder outboard. Right now the boat doesn’t get to full speed of 32 mph. It goes about 5 mph. Last year it had a similar issue with cylinder #3 and a rectifier fixed it. This year not so much. I’ve switched the ignition packs and the problem remains on cylinder 1...

    1986 85hp force not firing on cylinder 3

    Update on some testing I did today. I used a tach and ignition tester to check each spark plug pack. The bottom two cylinders(2&3) had 22 volts and spark. The top cylinder #1 had spark but only 4.5 volts. My plan is to switch the two ignition modules as the second is only using half of it to...

    1986 85hp force not firing on cylinder 3

    Okay so you’re saying if motor is out of water, it’s irrelevant to what’s happening with the motor? I’ll try to find a compression tester at work tomorrow asking different people. I took the carbs off a year ago and cleaned them, used jet cleaning rods to clean the small holes. Put the carb in...

    1986 85hp force not firing on cylinder 3

    Hey sorry for the delay. Haven’t been able to find a compression tester yet. All cylinders seem to have spark when testing. Now I noticed when I have the motor on muffs if I increase throttle, the rpms match and increase as normal. Once the motor is in the water rpms seem to be limited. But if I...

    1986 85hp force not firing on cylinder 3

    Good day everyone, Last year I got a boat with a 86 85hp force motor. It didn’t run at full speed when I got it. While checking things I shorted the rectifier with a screw driver. After that I changed the rectifier and it worked great. Until end of summer that is. Than the problem started up...
