Hello, i am new here, just signed up.
I bought a 1963 Evinrude 40hp Big Twin and it has an electric starter
but now starter cylinoid and wiring to hook up to the controls is missing.Is there anyone that can help find a wireing harness or any information
to get in running.I have not had any success finding anything.
The model # is 40353D
Serial # is E01713Thanks in advance to any help.
Larry.

Well you might have to make a choice, look for a junction box and stuff to restore it back to original or hard-wire it. The original stuff is out there, but getting harder and harder to find. If you decide to go the hard-wire route, here is the wiring diagram

May 23, 2020 at 1:22 pm #203834AN exact replacement aftermarket solenoid is a Sierra Marine 18-5807 that can be bought at NAPA auto stores as their number SME 185807. Or online at a lot of places like iboats.com. Just run a search for 18-5807.
