Take off the Caps dude.

ok, have you changed the cap and rotor? get a code reader and pull some codes the computer might give you an idea of whats up. also take the dizzy cap off and turn the motor over to make sure the rotor is turning . do you have a haynes manual if not get one they are great.

well guys,
thanks for the info, i had my dad come from Rochester, Mn since he is a mechanic and has all sorts of tools and computers to check the engine with and all, he was giving me ideas to try over the phone and then he decided it would be easier to just come here and check it since we couldnt get it and i wanted to be able to put the boat in this weekend... So i just wanted to let you know we got it fixed and it was the whole distributor and replaced it and voom voom she started right up... i just thought i would let you all know what it was incase you all might have the same prob. someday... i also wanted to say thanks to you all for tryin to help me...
thanks
mic
