So I am going to add the charging system and electric start to my motor. This is my first outboard. Been studying the parts schematics and a manual I have and I think I only need the following parts. Am I missing something? I feel like I'm missing something but don't know what it is. Thanks for your help. (I have the right flywheel already) My model number is a 35903A.

Stator assembly: 581651
Rectifier: 581778 (already have bracket)

Starter: 0386591 (already have bracket)
Starter Solenoid: 0383622

All parts were found here:

Does yours already have a toothed flywheel? most will have a wire junction plate, connecting all the jumpers and such. some sort of ignition switch/button/MOB etc. that should about do it, I have found it cheaper if you can come up with a parts donor motor to salvage the system off of. good luck.

I do have the toothed flywheel. It also has the standard stop button. Other than that, I'm not sure what I should be looking for as far as require harnesses of wire junction plate.

I had tried to find a parts motor for about 6 months but have not had any luck, so I just ordered the above parts off Ebay. Only other thing I know for a fact that I need is an ignition switch, battery, battery cables, etc.

I'm does anybody have a picture of the "wire junction plate", or know if there are any other parts I need? I don't need a voltage regulator for a factory stator do I? Do I just hook up the stator to the rectifier and then to the battery?
And the starter would just be from battery to starter, plus ignition switch to starter solenoid right?

For what it's worth, I will be converting this motor from a tiller to a center console when I get my new boat. (1860 Phowler Extreme with modified v)

So I guess I need a terminal block.

Must I have a neutral start switch and choke switch?

The junction plate can just be a generic type bought at any auto parts store, And that you are converting to center console you will want a solenoid / electric choke, depending on the controls you have it should have the ignition switch installed. I think you have it about all covered, good luck

So I think I have everything in hand or on order now except or some controls and the choke stuff.

My last question is this:

Can I swap on a complete carb with the electric choke from a 1977 Evinrude 35 ? I found one for sale so it seems that's my easiest option, if it will work. (I want to buy the complete carb if it will work because it has the bowl, bracket, linkages, plunger and all) My carb doesn't have to proper bowl.
