Tempting BigBass but I figured it out tonight.
Turns out that when you clean a contact or ignition point ou should not give it a light coating of WD-40 to keep the rust off. it turns out it may or may not stall the spark out causing an intermitten ignition issue.
so wipe those points clean of all dust and lube, then your engine will start 30 times in 2 hours and run continuously for 3.5 hours. yee haaa... maybe i will have to take it to deer creek this weekend just to make sure my boat can handle it.
thanks for the input all. I went back through the ignition and sure enough after i just wiped it all down and found no odd things of interest it started on one half pull with my beer hand. LOL
