its been sitting a while and trying to resurrect it. in process of cleaning grounds and connectors.
Any thoughts on this?
Has:
fresh battery
new fuel pump
2 beeps with key although the display is toast
has good compression/spark.
fuel pump runs for a sec when key installed.
with fuel pump plugged in, the guage fuse blows rather quickly, if the fuel pump is unplugged, it will turnover longer before blowing the guage fuse.
 
Your first step is going to clean every plug/jack and put dielectric grease on them, every plug/jack. Clean the grounds, there is a big cluster on the front of the engine. They get kind of crusty, clean the mating surface on the engine and the eyelets. If that don't work you are looking for a component that is blowing the fuse. Helps to have a meter that can read DC current.

I have a meter capable of doing that. Pulled the engine fuse box, cleaned all the terminals and tightened the spades that the fuses slide into. Start solenoid was a tad rusty, cleaned all the cables that are associated with that fuse box and reconnected. In process of cleaning the ground connections on the front end of the motor. You were right, pretty crustyIMG_1012.png

So now you know the enemy you face with a boat. When some people pull their boat out of the water they leave a little bit of water in the bilge, which, in our boats in under our engines. Eventually, that water will evaporate and corrode/rust
everything that's not greased,oiled or painted.
