Location: Madison wi | Esox maniac- i actually do have a service manual for my motor, but it doesn't have alot of info for diagnostic tests on the ignition system. As far as taking it to a mechanic, i had it to a place at the end of last season and a different place beginning of this season. Because the problem is intermittent, its hard for them to locate it. But both timrs they were happy to charge me 100$ hour for basically nothing. Ive had bad luck with marine mechanics throughout the years, and i hate to pay someone a bunch of money to fix something i can fix for free. That being said, i am at the end of my knowledge, and just bit the bullet and took it to another mechanic this weekend. My fingers are crossed. They seem to think its a loose wire or a wire thats shorting out somewhere in the harness. With my first hayward trip coming up in a week, i have no more time to waste. I will keep you guys updated on what the problem actually was when i get the boat back this week
Thank you very much to everyone who has replied to this thread and gave me help. It is MUCH appreciated! And thanks alot esox maniac for offering that service manual to me, thats very nice of you. Its people like you thar make this site great
