Mercruiser dies suddenly - occassionally - sorry for the length of this
"Eisboch" wrote in message ... "Jim" wrote in message nk.net... Moisture under the cap will cause all kinds of havoc after a few minutes running. The moisture atomizes and shorts things out. The coil or tower wire could be failing. The Petronix module could be failing. The resistor wire doesn't matter since there are no points. In fact it should be bypassed. The ignition switch could be going bad. Run a jumper from the battery to the coil to see weather the problem is 12 volts or high voltage. Make sure you have a good water separation filter in the gas line so that the carb doesn't glop up again. This should be a cheap fix, even if you buy all of the parts I mentioned. Jim You just earned yourself a Miller. Good advice. Eisboch Delivered? |
