My 1984 Johnson 60 hp runs great. Problem is when I turn the key off it won't stop. Putt the emergency stop, still won't stop. Checked the key switch wiring all OK. The red black wire has 12 V when key is on, 0 V when off. I believe this is what it is supposed to be. Only way I can stop it is by pulling both spark plug wires. (It will still run with only one disconnected.) Or I can disconnect the fuel line and let it run out of gas. Never expected to have a problem with the motor not stopping. Can't find anyone who has ever had this problem.
