Hi, Need help and to be honest..in somethings I am an idiot. it was running great when taken off another boat. putting onto a 91 bayliner capri and got starter hooked up but no longer have photos of where wires go as it was wired to a run/stop switch & clip (like on a newer PWC)- never trust a friend....yikes

Its an 80s model Mercury 850. under the cowl/cover there is what looks to be an electronic IGNITION box with terminals on both sides. the motor does not have the original wires on it!....so all wires are yellow!!.
it turns over but...no spark to plug wires... help! there are I think 5 screw terminals on the right side of the ignition module arrainged vertically and the lowest one has a side by side screws. any ideas of what I do now?....
thanks
Ron

First lets get the correct year motor as the 850 was not made in the 80's, the last year they where made was 1977.
