Hi Derek, My 2QM20 might be a similar vintage to your engine. Mine has a fuse near the back of the head, port side, that has a connection which often comes loose. The symptoms shown have been no idiot light at panel or lights okay but no starter power. So far I've cured by wiggle action

Pretty much every marine engine has a connector or two in the engine/panel wiring harness. They are there to make installation convenient at the factory, but, after a few years, can cause a lot of problems as corrosion and wear set in. I’ve seen electrical problems on every size of boat

That looks pretty much the same as I found on Windburn. I used 2 white oak for two of the girders ( stringers ? ) and 1.5 for the center girder. The challenge was cutting the oak to match the curve of the bilge, which was different on the two sides. Further, the sides did not run parallel bow to

Just a caution, a check of voltage or resistance is only a part of the puzzle. If the connection(s) on one or both ends are corroded, it may still pass a small amount of current to show voltage but may not pass enough current to support the user, i.e. pump or starter, etc. Connections must be
