Any help appreciated here-Basic Starflite Selectric with 4 diode rectifier. Rectum fryer is more like it if you want to bend over for new one's at 80.00 ea. At some point Evinrude dumped this setup and also had something simpler prior to this mess. I am trying to determine what year's this happend as well as any input from someone who has done an update or went backward. The engine itself is very good and run's strong but had been stored a number of years, 20 according to registration but moisture and a eternally hooked up battery damaged component's in the electric box. Wasn't prepared for the complex electric's. I've replaced all but the diodes. Given their age and crust I don't trust them even though they meter good as does the stator. My electric shop said average diode life is around 20 yrs. and that the diodes I have were used in great number in school buses but he had the same cost issue I did. From what I remember from Navy day's this look's like a full wave bridge rectifier. This engine is on a very rare 67'Chrysler Commando 115 center console boat which I found in southern mich. Not even a waterline on the boat or engine. This engine was it's first power. Dash was cut just for the Evinrude component's. Wanted to leave thing's that way but maybe this engine isn't worth all the trouble. Any help appreciated. Hate to have to sell it but disability income just won't allow for a repower. Can send pic's. Thank's for any help.
