quote Wyo307:

FrankR or someone else do you have a picture of where that Mercury switch mounts? I don’t have one but I found one on ebay I may buy but I am unsure of where it is supposed to be mounted on the motor. I still haven’t decided if it is worth the money to buy it or not just for a safety feature. I can just ground the starter switch and remember to not start it while it is wide open and I should be fine.

Goes under the screw holding the pinion gear #7. It prevents electric starting at fast throttle settings on this particular motor. But on some newer ones, it also prevents operation of the vacuum cut-out switch at high speed throttle settings.
