I just recieved a 1969 johnson 85hp outboard (came with a boat but irrelevant) that is a complete wiring disaster. I got it to turn over but no spark. Im wondering if anyone has any wiring diagrams and advice they can offer.
:confused:

Take some digital photos of every connection first, then carefully start removing the whole engine harness and lay it out to use as a pattern and just build yourseft a complete new harness ther's really not much to it, use some heat shrink tubing and solder the connection eyelets (crimps are ok but I prefer to solder)

the problem I have is there are some wire that i dont know where they go, and there are some connections that i dont have wires to go to them. Otherwise that would be an excellent idea. Does anyone have any info on the car coil conversion?
