Guy down the street left his switch on and had a fire under the hood a few year back. Looked like the VR fried/melted top of it and burnt the wiring harness and probably the stator.....not sure if the switch being on caused it but I wouldnt/dont like to do it. I got the long block....He totaled the boat thru insurance. My 9.9 and 5 have points......they run like a top.
