I just acquired a late 70?s(I believe) Saf-t-mate(bought out by 4 winds in 1974) boat with a 50 HP Mercury Thunderbolt ignition.
I hasn?t been started for a few years, so I cleaned out the tanks and put new plugs in it. I cannot seem to get a fire out of the engine. I even put starting fluid in the cylinders and still got nothing.
Does anyone know if there is some kind of a tether switch or kill switch on it somewhere? It seems, with the starting fluid I would at least get it to fire but nothing. My e mail is kevin.king35@aol.com if you can help me.
