I have a 1990 Yamaha ProV150LD. The previous owner (boat liquidator) removed the oil tank and made the enging to take fuel mixed 50:1 in the tank.
So, I tried the boat out and it ran fine. Checked everything out and all was good.
One day I put it in the lake and nothing. I pulled it out and got it back home and had a blown 20 amp fuse under the cowling. Kept blowing the fuse as soon as I turned the key to ignition on. The engine would not turn over.
I looked into the remote engine control and found several crushed and nicked wires causing the short.
I purchased a new Yamaha 703 remote control. Plugged it in and the blown fuse issue stopped. The engine turns over fine.
But no spark on the plug. I have fuel. But I took a spark plug out and grounded it to the engine. No spark.
Any ideas? It ran fine before it started blowing the 20 amp fuse on the wiring harness.
Thanks.
