1954 Evinrude 25hp Wiring
Just acqired a 1954 Evinrude 25hp outboard with no spark at the plugs.
The wiring harness hanging from the engine has 4 wires. 1) Positive
starter lead, 2) ground lead, 3) wire conecting to the choke solenoid,
4) wire connecting to a gear that has a cable attached to it that goes
up under the flywheel (either timing adjustment or linkage to the
carb).
My question is ... Do either wires 3 or 4 needs to be connected to
something to complete the circuit for the points to send current to
the plugs?
I attached starter lead to positive and ground lead to negative and
starter spins right away, but no spark.
Thanks for the help.
