OK Chris, slow up a bit for me… Sorry, not trying to confuse you… A few things to consider here. First, I am assuming you do not have the original boat wiring harness for this engine. And, I’m thinking someone just added that electric starter (different colored paint) to what was a manual start from the factory, and they probably didn’t have the engine wiring either. One thing is for sure, the two stop leads get connected to the M terminals on the key switch…. BUT, it is important to remember that those M terminals should not be used as “grounds” for any other accessories. If you do, you will melt the coils…
Give me awhile, I will attempt to find a wiring diagram for one of these engines in the archives somewhere. This issue is also confused by the fact that we are dealing with the vacuum cut out switch circuitry as well…. Don
