Hey everybody,
I have a 1990 Johnson 140 with what appears to be a bad kill switch. The engine turns over but no spark. I have been searching the net for a replacement but all I can find is 2 wire switches. Mine has a single black wire and 2 black with yellow striped wires. 1st question is can anybody point me in the right direction on the replacement part? 2nd question, does anybody know how to bypass this just for troubleshooting(I would never get underway while it's bypassed)? 3rd question, if I am only able to get a 2 wire switch, how do I hook it up, coming from 3 wires down to 2?

Thanks in advance,
Dan
