Where would I find the correct ignition switch (or one that will work correctly) for an 85 Bayliner Capri with a 125 hp Force. Must have the push to choke feature. I am getting tired of starting my boat at the solenoid. Thanks in advance, Eric

Check Overton's, I was just reading through the new catalog that came in the mail & was looking at the exact switch your talking about. You can pick up a free catalog at any Gander Mt. store or just go on Overtons.com. Also you can check the Marine Store here on iboats, the button to click on is the first one in the top banner on top of this & every page.

Perhaps it would be a good idea to actually determine if the ignition switch was bad. All too often switches are replaced (with the wrong one) only to find that the problem is still there. If you are jumping the solenoid in the traditional manner (small terminal to +12 volts) and it starts, then the wiring to and from the switch may be bad, or the neutral start switch in the control box may be bad. Troubleshoot and isolate. THEN replace or repair.
