I just bought a 1979 mercury 9.8 and the switch box was off can anyone explain how to wire it back up to the coils or have some pics of how it is wired ?
Thanks, Eddie
I bought a 1983 15 hp evinrude it has great spark , removed spark plugs poured gas in cylinders replaced spark plugs , still did not start only a loud backfire . It seems like it is out of timing is there any way to set the time on this type of outboard ?
