    1985 Evinrude 15 HP trouble starting

    He was referring to the orange wires going to the coil. Orange green lower.....orange blue going to top. If one is wet one dry most likely coil or power pack. Switch coil and see if the problem follows. It should have started on one though. Could be carb or fuel related

    My Evinrude 1989 150hp outboard ID part

    Kill switch question

    You can mount the kill switch on your dash if you want but you will have to wire it into the box. Post Pic of control box, if it's a white or black box with a red plug on the end of the harness it should have a spot for a man overboard switch.
