[QUOTE="thill, post: 502769, member: 4972"] Well, I just came in from doing the carbs on the 60 Johnson. Got them done and back on, everything looking good. I turned the key and... nothing. Hooked up the test neons and no spark. Bummer. Unplugged the black/yellow kill wire, just in case, but no change. I probably should test the stator, but it's probably the power pack, (#583748) so I ordered a CDI brand aftermarket one from Amazon. Have had decent success with CDI, and it was half the price of OEM. ($110) Will be here tomorrow or Tuesday. We'll see if and how it runs once the part comes in. Worst case, free returns, and not a lot of time invested. A little bit of a letdown, but I have plenty of other stuff to do to keep me busy. [/QUOTE]
