The mercury switch is supposed to take the vacuum switch out of the circuit an higher speeds. In other words at slow throttle settings it provides an electrical ground. (Of course all insulating sleeves and washers must be in there proper place.) Some models have a second switch which completes the starter solenoid circuit at low speeds. Others use a Cherry switch actuated by the shift lever. . . 😉
