1980 35hp johnson, black plug electrical sys i believe.
frying the black wire off the igmnition switch i just replaced.
made a note/ pics and i think i got wires to their right spots. was getting no power to switch, jumped +batt to b on switch then started and choke worked, but then i noticed black wire cooking. any suggestions? im thinking disconnect everything and connect power and black/ground. if the black wire stills heats up does that mean the ground is shorted to power someware? that would explane why no juice is getting to the switch...
