Went hunting this morning and the motor cranked up just fine, ran to the hole and when we got there i turned the motor off. I then tried to turn it back on and nothing happened at all...no fuel pump priming or anything. So i get back to the ramp and inspect all wiring and see nothing wrong. I go buy new battery cables and put a new battery on it. After putting them on the fuel pump comes on but nothing at all happens when you try to start it. The key went out back a couple yrs ago so i have used a push button starter ever since..went and bought a new button and still nothing. Anybody have any clue? Thanks

jumper the starter solenoid and see if it cranks. if it does then either the solenoid is bad or the wires to it.

Mercury switch??
