    Evinrude 70 hp carb question

    So I guess the air pulls from the slot opening at the top of the throat opening. The cork gasket and airbox does cover the air jet completely leaving the notch below the air jet to provide air. Hope that made sense

    Evinrude 70 hp carb question

    Noticed on my 86 evinrude 70 hp that the airbox and corresponding cork gasket closes off the small jet at the top of the carb when bolted to the carbs. Seemed strange to me. I'm assuming it's normal. Just thought it seemed strange. Anyone know how this works being closed off.

    70 hp rectifier wiring

    I have a red wire that ends with an open socket single pin connector. It goes from the red rectifier connection point on the terminal block and runs to the port side near the solenoid. I must be missing another piece of that to connect to the solenoid? Motor runs fine but not charging
