ok. my bad.. the boat is a 1982 Renken and i thought it was original motor but maybe not . tag on motor says Prod No. 3868045 Type 4.3 GL PMDA SER. NO. 4110110636 with a reverse gear drive unit SX-CT1 1.97
i wanted to use this mercruiser motor (see pic). but maybe that is bad...
I am swapping a '82 Volvo Penta 4.3 gl motor for a Mercruiser 5.0 motor. both motors are 305 c.i.d. bell housing went right on and motor went into boat, all is well , except wiring harness plug VP has 7 pins and merc has 9. what am I missing?
