Klaus,
Thanks for your response.

I will check ground connects. The 850 has two stranded & exposed wire leads from left and right ends of the exhaust cam covers. I assume these are the engine grounds you mention. I will also look under the battery but.....

I once had a 740 with a bad engine ground (up in the oil pan area very messy) and the engine would not turn over at all - NOTHING. Can't recall if dash lights lit but engine did not crank.

Since the engine is cranking and there is voltage at various ignitiom points doesn't that rule out a bad ground as problem?????

Just asking. I appreciate your assistance
