    Hi pimpadelic,

    The Mercruiser Manual shows these two wire as open so don't worry about them. I believe they are either for setting the ignition in "Base" mode for setting the timing or for a Mercruiser Tech equipment hook-up.

    You are correct WetWilly, those are the jumper wires for setting the timing
