Electric Choke Switch Options
Posted: Fri Jan 04, 2019 1:31 pm
Howdy folks!
My new, 2016, Yamaha 9.9s have an electric choke and no manual option. The original Yamaha Ignition Switch panel does not include an electric choke switch. The original panel still works reliably, so I'm not inclined to replace it. Although I can flip the choke to the 'on' position after removing the engine cowl, this can be a problem for other operators.
I would like to fabricate a switch that can actuate the electric choke. There are several unused holes in the helm in which to place this switch setup. Have any of you gone this route? Do you have pics and advice about proceeding on this project?
