I've been using a drill to start this motor, but sure would be nice just to install an electric starter. Were they available for the 9.9/15?

Check with Twin City Outboard, Chris. They probably have the right stuff.<br /><br />Good luck. :)

Chris....the last kit I priced for electric starting (new) was around $589. Look around for a used set up. Even a used electric start engine. You can figure that a used kit would be around half the new price.
