Thread: Evinrude v4 90 ignition issue (1987)

    FIXED:
    So an update to provide closure to this thread in case others come across a similar issue in the future.
    I ordered and received a timer base and fitted it this week just in time for a water test on ANZAC Day. Woohoo it worked perfectly. So my original issue of no spark on 1 cylinder, be it #1 or #3 :-), was due to a faulty timer base.
    Thanks to everyone who responded with their ideas and advice.

    Good feedback Reffo, please tell me your flywheel mating surfaces were perfectly clean & dry, your key was put in with the outer face parallel to the crankshaft centreline, you applied sealant to the flywheel nut and you torqued it down to the recommended 105 Ft Lbs I think?

    Don't mind me mate I'm just a worrier, really happy you got to the bottom of it.

    Hey Fed.
    Need to remove the flywheel again soon to replace the regulator/rectifier so no sealant. All other boxes ticked :-)
