48 hp spl 1996 will not spark

[MPasek]

My boat got swamped, battery submerged and shorted. Rectifier was ruined and replaced. I have cleaned all electrical contacts on the motor. It cranks fine but will not start. No spark. Could it be the power pack or the coil, how can I check.

Might be the stator as well, if rectifier shorted, might have shorted the stator.

You'd have to check each component by the manual.

Good luck. Hopeful you had insurance?

Thanks, I was afraid of the stator being ruined. I bailed and pumped out the boat and SeaTow got me back home.
