distributor cap...wow!
 
I've owned this boat two years, it's a 2000 model with 500 hours on the clock, has had (2) previous owners. I took advantage of the access provided me with the sunpad off to change the cap and rotor. I swear it is the original! The contacts inside the cap are all but dissolved; there was a plethora of white dust sitting inside the cap on top of the housing.
I don't even know how the thing was firing...
