Hi guys im a newbie to Speedboats repair etc, i purchased a 1960`s fletcher speedboat and restored it and brought a Johnson 65hp 3 cylinder 1973 at a good price, but i am having difficulty at understanding how to wire this up, it comes with the engine and throttle cable and lever etc.
i have took some photos hope this will help i have pointed and what im on about
engine pic one shows a square box but round at back, it has 2 loose red wires held in by a nut, do i connect a 12v + from the battery here ?
engine pic one shows 2 wires that look like they join with a fuse holder but no fuse it in, any ideas what fuse it is ???
engine pic two shows a loose black wire what look like it attaches near the gear linkage but been cut off so am i right in thinking that this needs to be grounded from battery ???
throttle pic 1 shows 3 wires coming out the remote throttle they are brown, red, black, so my question is where do these connect ?
throttle pic 2 shows 3 wires inside the remote throttle, there is blue, green and it is either purple or brown (not sure which) where would these connect?
i know these maybe simple question but i have not got a clue, im also trying to wire it to a kill swith on the dashboard but again have no idea??
Cheers for your help guys
