Got a new boat a few weeks ago (some of you might've seen the thread) and it has been sitting in a shop building for the past 25 or so years. The motor on the back is an old Merc 110 (9.8hp) and is in pretty nice condition so i want to use it this year or until i can find a console steer 25. I know the carb will need to be cleaned and i can do that, i can do the water pump too, but what i need help finding is the battery cables. This motor has electric start on it but the cables going from the motor to the battery are corroded, dry rotted, and falling apart. I looked on Iboats and Boats.net but I came up with nothing on iboats and got confused on boats.net. Boats.net couldn't find my serial number... i'm hoping i got the right number off the engine. It was on the engine mount above where the steering ram goes thru and it had the Mercury logo, starting instructions, and then the serial number 4548312. Someone please help because i've been searching for over a week and i'm ready to have this one running!
