[officer4c13]

ok so i just got an 80's modle force 85hp and the ignition switch has been part way unwired. the one it came with only has 4 conectors and all the ones i have found on here have 6. i have a choke botton so that will be seperit. i have it wired right noe so it starts when you turn the key but it will not turn off with the key. can some one please help me with what i need and what color wires go where?

The blue and white wires are the stop circuit. Just get a normally open single pole single throw switch and put blue on one terminal and white on the other. When you toggle the switch to closed (connecting the blue and white., the engine will stop. Just make certain that inside the engine, on the terminal board, white is connected to the white terminal and blue is either jumpered to ground with a flat jumper bar, or connected to the ground terminal.
