    Ignition switch problem

    I have a 74 merc 650 which apparently<br />blew the ignition switch 2 days ago.<br />The after-market switch I bought has the push to choke function and my control box has the old push button choke on top. Can I use the new switch while leaving the old choke connections?<br /> :confused:

    What is my gap?

    No laughing now...stop it!<br />I have a 74 Merc 65hp. The manual is in the mail however the temps have reached 40+ and it hasn't snowed in 2 weeks. I'm anxious to get my "new bride" wet! I have a few other minor cosmetic needs to complete and we're out there. I need gap spec's for NGK plugs...

    What is the year of my Merc?

    Fantastic BB. I will be surfing here often.<br />I recently purchased a boat with an<br />unknown 65hp Mercury s/n 4050810.<br />My best guess is it's late 70 early 80's.<br />Can you please help? :confused:
