Hot wiring Johnson Outboard

Is there anyone that is able to layout step by step on how I can hot wire start my 2004 johnson 150hp outboard. For now I really just want to compression test. Eventually full start and test on muffs.

I have the key and ignition switch with 6 pin male connector on that

I do not seem to have the actual kill switch control. I believe its the black yellow wire which is one of the 6 in the key ignition switch.

From there I dont really know what I am doing on the engine harness side. Not sure what needs to be connected.

Another basic question I have is what studs am I powering on the starter/solenoid? Where is the positive going and where is the negative going?

I took a gamble on a used outboard on marketplace. Even if doesnt end up paying off it will be a few hundred dollar learning project to help me in the future. I am interested in learning becoming proficient in service on these.

Ive included pictures if that helps

Parts for 1999 johnson ocean runner 150hp

Can anyone turn me in a direction to get parts for an older 2 stroke johnson. These were made by evinrude which are out of business now. Are there old stock oem parts still out there? Any reliable aftermarket manufacturers that are still making parts?

Thanks
