I bought a boat with a 1967 Mercury 500 Thunderbolt outboard. I am not familiar yet with this engine. The previous owner put a new starter on it and was working on wiring in a different starter solenoid. I plan on rewiring the motor. Am I able to use a newer starter solenoid as long as I mount it somewhere close? My real question is, does it matter what solenoid I get as long as I can mount it close to starter?
