1960 Johnson 75HP Super Sea-Horse

[Duovirginia]

I am restoring a boat with this motor. I need a few parts. For instance, the wiring harness (starting harness that plugs into the motor and goes to the starter box in the boat). Is harness available anywhere? It's bad and I by-passing it right now. But I am not getting power to the spark plugs. What is the motor shut controlled by so I can bypass it also. Is it the wire that attaches to the magneto?

But my main question is, where is the best source for parts?

Welcome to iboats

Here is a link to a Service Manual. It does have a couple of Typos.
75hp @4500rpm not 4000

There used to be links to sites that did sell Wiring Harnesses for old motors, but it seems they have evaporated

There are others but since iboats sponsors this site, they can't be named

The magneto makes it own spark.----And 12 volts is not needed from a battery to run this engine.

A 1960 would be, as racer said, Magneto. In 1961, both Magneto and Battery Ignition were offered, depending on the Model
