2003 mercury 25hp 2stroke choke wire hookup question

[robaloroger]

I have a 25el 02 and I am hooking up wires. I have everything figured out except the choke. I see a black wire and a black and yellow above the carb that looks like are for the electric choke. Do I run a ground from the black wire to the block and the black and yellow to the choke ignition lead? There is almost no room for a bad crimp and resplice so I want to make sure I get it right the first time..Thanks in advanced..

Yep....black wire just grounds to the block, or another grounding point. Whatever you can ground it to in the area. Yellow to yellow wire.

My ignition has a blue wire for the lead when it is choked so I guess that will be it..

Thanks will
