1990 evinrude 200xp
I recently purchased a 1991 charger pro b*** boat as a fixer upper project for my son. It has a 1990 evinrude 200xp outboard motor on it. I installed a new water pump on it because I was told it had been grounded while running.After the repair, I ran the boat in my local canal and it would run good for a few minutes and then would only allow minimum throttle. I didn't know at the time that it was going into S.L.O.W mode. I guessed I was having a fuel issue. I brought the boat back home and found out about S.L.O.W. mode. I decided to pressure wash the entire boat (inside and out) to clean off some of the abuse of the previous owners. The next weekend I removed both thermostats and found more shells in them. I figured the shaft between the water pump and thermostats must be full of debris so I figured I would run the motor with the housings off for a little bit to flush out the remaining debris. The motor would crank over but wouldn't start. I tried to diagnose the problem but I still haven't solved it yet. I have a no spark condition, I believe. My service manual gives me different ohm readings for different parts for testing but my digital multimeters readings aren't even close. I believe I need to have the type of meter they list in the service manual. Is there a simple way to test to see if there is power going into the powerpack so I can eliminate it? Is it possible that the powerpack isn't getting power because I got water into someplace that I shouldn't have? As I said I pressured washed everything including the motor but only the external housing of the motor. I washed all of the controls for the motor(throttle,ignition switch, kill switch,everything thats housed in the throttle box). Any help would be greatly appreciated. I don't want to just start thowing parts at the motor for no reason hoping that something fixes it. The kill switch and neutral safty switch ohm good. thanks again for any help.
