under the engine cover there is a reservior that holds oil that is pumped up from the large tank. The reservoir has a plug on the top which is a float switch that switches the pump motor on to fill it. either the float for the alarm isnt working or the same float to tell the pump to turn on isnt working. check the connection of the wires coming off that plug.

Make sure your shifter cable isn't out of adjustment . It must be in true neutral position on the engine and not advanced out of position. All boats have a safety feature that either cuts power to the starter or the spark plug and fuel pump. There are is a little adjustment room on either end of the cable . If you are in sure disconnect the cable at the engine and move the leaver on the engine to neutral . Then try and start up. The other issue that is over looked is a bad kill switch on the shifter or a corroded and or loose battery wire at the battery or at the engine.

Sound like corrosion on tilt pin. Grease it or one day it will stuck and cost hundreds to remove and replace.

Should be easy. It is all DC voltage. One hot and one ground. Not sure why you need a diagram for dc.

This is a lost spark system... The two holes share everything related to ignition including the pickup under the flywheel.
