Running Ignition Tests
Use Evinrude Diagnostics software to monitor
system voltage (55 V).
• Voltage readings a t a specific speed (RPM)
should be steady.
• Refer to System Voltage Test on p. 81.
Use an inductive timing ligh t to monito r the sp ark
signal through each of the secon dary circu it
(spark plug lead) wires.
Start outb oard a nd observe timing light stro be.
Look for a consistent flash and only one flash per
revolution. The strobe of the timing light should be
the same for each cylinder.
Results:
Steady voltage and strobe, engine misfires:
• Inspect or replace spark plugs
• Refer to FUEL DELIVERY TESTS on p. 85.
• Check for internal engine damage.
Steady voltage, erratic strobe, engine misfires:
• Inspect or replace spark plugs
• Check CPS air gap and resistance.
• Refer to Ignition Control Circuit T ests on
p. 84.
• Refer to Ignition Coil Tests on p. 84.
Voltages fluctuate, engine misfires:
• Inspect battery and connections
• Test capacitor and all ground connections.
• Refer to System Voltage Test on p. 81
• Refer to Ignition Control Circuit T ests on
p. 84.
• Refer to Ignition Coil Tests on p. 84.
IMPORTANT: If a running pro blem occurs at
about 1200 RPM, the outboard may be in S.A.F.E.
Refer to S.A.F.E. WARNING SYSTEM on p. 63.
