Looks like that wire may be a big problem. It appears to me it goes from that coil to your power pack, and that cylinder probably no longer fires....


Thats my best guess

Tsubaki's right...if your vents are still below the rub-rail, you could be (probably are) gettin' water into the tank thru them ... do you have a fuel/water separator??...if not, you should go ahead and install one regardless of how this turns out ... if ya do have one, check it for water...

This pic shows where the vent used to be (S'board plate below rub-rail) and where it is now (on the bulkhead behind the spring-line cleat)

your motor problems sound just like mine before relocatin' the vents...

If yer gonna relocate the vents to that bulkhead, you'll have to find vents with 90* bends in the tubes, unless you can rig up something else...I got 90s for mine and I'm pretty sure MJ did too ;) ...
