I'm getting an outboard that I've rebuilt ready for the water, and one of the things I needed to change was the kill switch. Using a multi-meter, I traced the wires from the old, broken switch, to the distribution block. Everything had continuity. There are 4 screws on the block, each screw had continuity to every other screw.
I can't find a decent wiring diagram, so I'm not sure if this is correct, although it doesn't feel right. (it has been about half a decade since I worked on a points ignition system, and that was a car, not an outboard)
Does anyone have a wiring diagram for a motor this old? I have bought a couple different manuals, and I think that I found the correct wiring diagram, but it is difficult for me to read.
Alternately, I can't find a stock switch that is in good enough condition to use, is there an alternate part number I can use? Is there an off-the-shelf style switch I can use (such as a regular single-pole, single-throw switch?)
