Spent the day wiring relays. Only place I could find red, green and blue #14 was Home Depot.
TA-DAH!!! IT WORKS!!!
Thanks for all the info, advice and 'specially the pics. I would never have been able to wire those 5 pin thing-a-ma-bobs without the pics. I just followed colors. As I said before for some reason when I see "relay" my mind just turns to Jello(er) than normal. Mounting them inside the cowl made wiring so much easier, only wires I had to run were red, green and blue to the dash switch. That slave on the transom works great. The one pic of them mounted is before I tie-wrapped everything neatly.

Good work! You're gonna love having that extra switch at the stern, makes it very handy when you're working on things back there.

Thanks Jim, as the song goes "get by with a little help from my friends". I used your finger picture more than anything else ;)

Dropped the LU this morning and blew air through the lines, all clear and air came out the thermostat housing. Ran a spin test on the pump and got a small trickle that I could stop with my finger. Pulled the pump apart and there was a 1/2" gap broken out of the old gasket that I thought I could fill with gasket maker on the first impeller replacement. That does NOT work. Made a new gasket with material I have and spinning with my 'lectric drill I cannot stop the great flow with the finger, It spit back at me.
I took a video of the flow but unable to upload it here. Also plugged the feed pipe and poured white vinegar in the thermostat housing and let it soak for an hour, should loosen up any calcium. After it soaks now I;ll shove a hose up its butt just to double check nothing is remaining.
Nothing like reviving an old outboard,,...smells like.....victory!
