ok I have a 1985 115 hp johnson. That i started today bought the boat about a year ago and just started tinkering with it. The engine started and immediatly was like i was oushing it down to full throttle and i wasnt it was in idle. and something under the fly wheel in a box with a red cord running in it caught on fire and melted the top of the box now every time i put those battery cables on the battery it glows orange. hot immediatly. Please help or advise me cause i have no clue on what to do. at this point.

is the ''box'' you refer to behind the flywheel?the voltage regulator is mounted there if you have one....pull it off and replace it... and make sure the polarity on your battery is correct when reconnecting..
