The control box on the boat needs to be replaced. The price to replace the box is around 3 to $400 dollars. With a boat that old am i just wasting my time and money?
It’s difficult to answer this reliably. Depends on the number of hours and overall condition of the rest of the engine. You may fix this and have something else break soon after. My gut feel without knowing it’s history is that your should not invest that much in an old engine like this. Sell it for parts and get a newer used motor that you can test run and know that it is in good shape.
