I have an 1985 85 hp force motor the stator is bad I bought a stator and trigger coil on Ebay off a 1988 force. They both have 6 wires like me 85 does but no connectors just pigtail ends and they are different colored wires. Will they work on my motor. I was told they would but have no ideal how to hook them up? Help!!!

Outboard ignition dot com has all of the wiring diagrams you should need to diagnose the wire color changes. You may have to look at the 2 different diagrams and piece them together.
 
You bought the wrong one :(

It will work, the wire colors should be close enough that you can match them.
Put the old stator on top of the new one(cut off the plugin's) the wires then match up to
the new stator.

Try to solder the new connections.
