    So basically, trace the wires, make my own? 🙂 I think I got it. Had 2 fuse holders and 3 accessory switches I had to replace. I took a picture of the wires but had one switch out. It had hot jumpers from switch to switch. I’m just going to re-wire it because I think whoever wired it before used...

    Does anyone have any idea where I could get a wiring diagram for this boat?

    Mercury 60 HP engine question

    The switch by the motor wasn’t even connected. There was a trim switch by the console, it was rusted and when I tried to get it loose it broke. So, I just replaced with a waterproof switch.

    Ok I have another question. My remote control unit does not have the trim button. Just the switch I posted earlier. Can I just replace the remote control unit with one that has the trim adjust button?

    Right. I just got a little confused looking at the parts diagram. Talked to my Brother in law and he told me the mix ratio. Appreciate the response to the post. Now I have to figure out this power trim stuff. Thanks again.

    Mercury 60 HP engine question

    No. There is a cap but the tank, looks like has been cut out. I’ve read that people have removed the oil injection system. Probably what happened here. I do not know the history of the engine. My dad passed away and my step-mother gave me the boat. Just trying to figure this thing out.

    Mercury 60 HP engine question

    By process of elimination I would assume it is the ELPTO model. But I am not sure about the oil injection part. I don’t see an oil tank anywhere. I would assume if it was oil injected it would have one.

    Mercury 60 HP engine question

    Pretty sure it does. Has a switch on the side of the motor that raises and lowers it. And a switch mounted on the hull (see pic)

    Mercury 60 HP engine question

    I understand that. This boat was given to me and Is also is my first boat. I have no clue how to identify the model. I figured I could ID it by serial number but I guess that’s not the case. I know it is electric start and wheel steer, other than that have no clue on the rest. Thanks for the reply.

    This is the only place I have found the serial number. I don’t see any other data plates anywhere.

    Mercury 60 HP engine question

    I recently was given a boat. I was trying to get some information on the motor that came with it. It's a Mercury 60 HP, the serial number is D296146. But when I look this up there are multiple engines. Not sure which is mine. 60 1994 ELO D279350 - G117717 60 1994 ELPTO D279350 - G116947...
