I know this is not about tractors but I need some help from a Mercury outboard mechanic. I have asked on several outboard sites with no results.
I have a 1973 model 200 (20hp) serial #3540395 It is pull start and has electronic ignition now. I want to convert it to electric start with a battery charging system.
I know some of the parts are NLA but that does not bother me. I am use to finding NOS parts with all these old things I work on.
The electric start is easy because I already have the flywheel with a ring gear. I know I will need a starter and a solenoid for this.
What I am having trouble with is the battery charging. I have been looking threw 3 differant parts diagrams (group 14; 15 and 16) that go with this motor and they list several stators. They also list a rectifier on one diagram and a voltage regulator on a differant diagram. Can someone help me understand this and walk me threw what parts I may need to change or add to make this work.
I will give you a link to a parts diagram page if that will help you help me. Thanks for the help. John
