89' 50hp merc overheated and burned off some wires. One was the temp sensore wire that seems to be an easy fix. But another was a small wire right next to the number one spark plug hooked directly into the block. I have no clue what this one is and how to fix it. Anyone have any ideas. Thanks.

Re: burned wires

Can you post a pictuer of wire and location. Dose it go into the block or is it fastened to the block (possible ground)

Re: burned wires

Not having very good luck uploading pics. I will keep trying. I don't think its a ground though. Its attached to a tiny little bolt that screws straight into the block right next to the number one spark plug.
