Re: My 1972 65 hp died while running.

ok so two weekends ago i had trouble starting my m60b but i figured out it was a dead battery .... but in the process i left the linkage loose on the bottom two carbs and since it ran fine off the dock i didnt realize it was like that until it was too late

ok so i just bought a new rectifier for my j140tlcim johnson and its got two yellow wires coming out but neither of them have a grey stripe so my question is does it matter which one i hook up and where so long as its yellow to yellow and red to the red?
