Hi everyone,
I'm restoring a 1958 Evinrude Lark 35hp. This is the first outboard I've every tried to restore. As I have been going through and cleaning all the individual engine parts, I have run into some issues. The main issues I'm struggling with right now is that the wiring harness is too deteriorated to reuse and I can't find a wiring harness for the engine. The part is obsolete. Now this being said, I'm looking for what my options are. This particular engine has a pull start option, would it be possible to run the engine without hooking up the electric start until I am able to find a replacement harness? Or, has anyone used a different harness that has worked?
Thank You for your responses.
