The MPEM testing next on the list. Just found the table that shows what everything should ohm out to. I did not think about the relay, I'll check that, as well. Stator is also on the list.
While it seems like the mpem is having issues, I do want to make sure that there aren't issues elsewhere that are causing this or that would cause a new mpem to blow.
Thank you very much!

Done. Waiting on details.
What else should I check in the meantime to make sure there is nothing else broken that could fry new mpem?
My thinking is that not much else could go wrong that would fry the MPEM as long as the battery is good and the connections are sound.
Thank you to everyone for your help!

Take Miki's advice on MPEM, and wasn't sure if you have am OEM manual, it's a must have. Coat your box seals with synthetic grease or dielectric (silicone grease but more $). I have original MPEM, coil, starter solenoid (needed a rap with pair of channel locks 16 years ago) and was sunk under a 80 ton boat for 4 hours so OEM stuff is pretty tough. Just got back from Havasu and my XP is still faster than my FX 1800 and way faster accelerating on smooth water.

Oh yeah, most people by an AGM battery and they're not vented, run your rear pisser through the battery vent hose and you can see it pissing from under rub rail while riding, who really checks the rear pisser when riding often enough (if ever) to catch a cooling issue that could cause problems.
