    Kill switch?

    Should be by throttle. Little pin that needs to be held out
    Boatless at this time

        +1 kill switch? The most common problem for non-starters.... Mine even kills the engine if it looks like it's in the correct position.. I have to push it really up to make sure it gives contact.

        sometimes they go completely South....

          Is it a Force outbord, or a Merc? It's a big difference!

          If it is a Force, it is actually what the Chrsler outboards evolved into, and has nothing to do with Mercury.

          Check out the Iboats.com Chryser/Force forum...they have some experts out there.

          Again, if it's a Force, it's likely a prestolite CDI ignition, and the troubleshooting is different than any points style ignition system. Are you looking at a 4 cylinder, one coil per cylinder?

          Ifr so, to shut down the spark they actually short the 'magneto' source to common, otherwise it will run forever!

          Try these:

          Hello - I am new to this forum but a longtime boat owner. Unfortunately I have to start my first thread with a tech question and I'll try to keep it short and direct. Last summer my 50 HP Force died - no spark from either coil but power everywhere else. I got it in the shop a couple weeks ago...


          The second one has a wiring diagram in it.

            I have a force motor 2235. thanks for the wiring diagram. when I bought the boat the guy broke the kill switch, he replaced it with a screw. Sometimes the boat will run perfect. I figure it is something simple, I'm just over looking it...

            Hell I don't even get any reading on my volt meter,going this morning to get a new one try it again. and replace the kill switch. I'll let you know if it works
