1985 Evinrude 120 stop circuit ?

[dhearn0513]

Does a 1985 Evinrude 120 V4 have a stop circuit. The Engine code is E120txco. I bought a new power pak from CDI and it has a stop circuit wire on it, and im not sure if my engine has this circuit or not. and if it doesn't have this circuit can i still use this power pack. If so what do I need to do with that wire.

It's called a kill circuit. Yes, it is standard equipment on that engine.

(Ignition Kill Circuit)

(J. Reeves)

A Black wire (ground) should lead from the powerhead to the powerpack. There will also be a Black/Yellow wire leading from the powerpack to a raised "M" terminal of the ignition switch. To complete the circuit, there will be a Black wire from the other "M" terminal of the ignition switch to ground.

When the key is in the OFF position = The two "M" terminals are connected,. effectively shorting/killing the ignition.

When the key in ON position = The two "M" terminals are not connected and the ignition is engaged.

The new power pack has a black and yellow wire with a metal cylinder looking male connector, but the old one does not have this connector. where is this connector on the new power pack connect to.

I figured it out. I had to pull the rubber boot off the old one and install it onto the new male plug, thanks for the help.

We knew you would get it. Putting your glasses back on always helps.
