"Another Question:
I have a 1996 Sunbird with a 1996 Johnson 88HP SPL that was running great last year, but with one problem. Sometimes I would turn the motor off, and then when I went to restart it, I would get nothing. It wouldn't even turn over. It was almost as if it was "In Gear" and you can't start the boat. I would then turn the key to the OFF position, wait, then try again, and it starts. Sometimes it takes a while though. The worst part about it is that it only seems to do this when I am out on the water. It doesn't do it when I have it running in my driveway!!! Another thing that sometimes seems to work is that when I turn the key and get nothing, I move the key to off, then put the boat in gear, then back out, and try to start and sometimes that works too. What could be wrong???"
