[QUOTE="Old Bill, post: 25062, member: 252"] If you haven't already bought the boat, I'd suggest that you carefully inspect all the wiring under the outboard motor's cowling. Tug and pull on the wires to see if the insulation falls off! Some OB wires of that age are very prone to becoming brittle, and the first time a person does any work on the motor...like changing cables, the insulation falls off. Locating a new wiring cable is sometimes difficult,,,and costly! I learned this the hard way!! [/QUOTE]
