Evinrude Intruder died on me - 04/04/16 09:22 PM
1997 Evinrude Intruder 115 died while fishing today. Wouldn't start again. Chuck at Service Marine's best guess was a power pack. It died on me as I was coming off pad and never would start again. Sounds like it's trying to start, but Chuck tested the spark and none of the 4 plugs were getting anything. Any other opinions?
What are the symptoms of a bad power pack? Are the chances high enough that it isn't a power pack that I should let a mechanic do a diagnostic on it? Chuck also mentioned a stator or something else could be the issue, but he'd have to do a full diagnostic to know for sure. Looks like the power pack is $200-$250, so I don't want to buy one unless I'm fairly confident that's the issue.
Thanks in advance for the help.
