    Default 89 johnson 40 throttle/shift motor connection

    Hi,
    Recently purchased 89 johnson, then controls separately. Motor seems to be missing some parts to connect the cables to the motor. Any suggestions what they look like and where to get them (toronto, canada)? jpg attached.
    thx.

    Thx for reply...but I don't understand 'red mark', and 'yellow'....(sorry, newby). I think I get the pins, basic, unthreaded with a cotter pin. What does the retainer look like? Do you have any pics. Can I fabricate or do I need to purchase?
