[QUOTE="Shaugh, post: 461084, member: 19781"] Yes when they converted it to an electric start they replaced the kill switch with the ignition switch. The kill switch was probably just discarded and the plug you see is what was left. Or it's possible it was wired to a remote switch, but I think many times people just killed the motor with the choke in those days. here's a photo of a 59 Evinrude I have in the shop showing how the paint does turn greenish over time: [ATTACH type="full" alt="IMG_3543.JPG"]100289._xfImport[/ATTACH] I think the green in your photos is mostly a camera / background reflection issue.
