Outboard Trouble Charts
Here is a handy chart I have used for years. Handy to have something like this on hand sometimes. I scanned the picture, so it ain't beautiful. Print it out and stick it somewhere.:rolleyes:

Cane Pole is having computer trouble so his chart is not available right now. I am adding these links so you guys will have some other resources while his chart is down.
Good information, diagnostics and tests for the VRO system in OMC "johnnyrude" outboards.

Very basic outboard troubleshooting chart. This gives you a few things to look at and check "if this" happens.

This is a great site and very informative. You can also order literature or even speak with the "mastertech" to get advise on your outboard.

Everyone should print the next one out...this is by far one of the most complete guides I've seen. Goes from cooling, fuel, ignition, troubleshooting, service, charts, and has some GREAT illustrations. This is a great read!! By the way it is a PDF file you will need adobe viewer to see it...you should have that...if not its free.
