785 issues
i have spark, i have compression, i have gas. what in the world else could it be? i had this boat running and an exhaust bolt came loose and some water got into the engine. i immediately went home and took everything apart and cleaned it up and this damn thing won't start. could the wires be crossed or does anyone have any advice? on the electrical box, the red wire closes to the pto goes to the starter correct?

did you hydrolock it?? if you got water into while running or trying to start it you hydrolocked it and have probably thrown the crank index out. if you have everything else needed to run then that is my bet..

there are a couple of good articles here somewhere, but you will need a dial indicator for sure.

maybe, but did you try to start it or run it with water in the crankcase?
rgard got a small amount of water in the first cylinder and it threw his crank out about 4 degrees. there was another guy here that threw his out 14 and 16 degrees.
does it even want to fire off at all?

yeah, i did try starting it with the water in it unfortunately. i mean the crank turns over easily but it never sounds like she's actually going to fire.
