I have a electric start 1975 evinrude 25hp. I have installed a push button start switch and I think I have it wired ok IT DOES WORK. But I want to put a kill switch and need some help. Does anyone know how to do this. The switch has 2 wires, I assume that I can ground one of the wires to the engine, But don't know were to connect the other wire. Thanks

Hi KRK,<br />If it has a power pack connect the other wire into the black wire with a yellow stripe.

Thanks A.R.A. , I don't think I have a powerpack. I have 4 wires coming out from under the flywheel and one of them is black with white stripe it plugs into a small pack and then some wires come from that box and go to the coils. One of those wires is black with yellow stripe. <br /> krk

Hey Guy's, thanks I got the black and white wire and spliced it just before the coils plug and wired that one to the switch and grounded the other wire to the engine ground, from the switch and it seems to be working. THANKS AGAIN FOR THE HELP!!!! krk
