Brand new to this
Just bought my first bass boat (intimidator with 94 200XRI). Oil injection system had a leak and while trying diagnose it I cracked the cap 🤦*♂️. So decided to delete the system and started my research. Scrounged up what info I could being that all the good threads with Pics are outdated and don’t work anymore. I’m just going off of people saying remove this and that without knowing what this and that looks like. So this is what I have removed. Can anyone tell me (preferably with a picture) what else needs to be removed as far as electronics. I pulled the lower box on top of the head. I have seen people say remove all three and people say to remove just the oil module. Everything oil related was connected to the lower box so that the only one I have pulled so far. It’s all a little confusing when you not familiar with the parts and names. Thanks I’m advance!

Sorry I don't have any pics to go along with this post. Your certainly on the right path, looks like you've got the oil sensor, water alarm, and detonation box off already. The last one you'll need off is the idle advance/retard from the top of the powerhead (if it's still there). You will also want to buy the plastic mercury plug that blocks off where the oil pump gear was. Premix heavy and enjoy! That will complete what you are after

Red/white wire and Black/wire go from that to the switchbox...thats the ignition control/idle stabilizer/burn your motor up box. Thats the most critical to get rid of.

Yep, that's it! Like 25two said......it's a stabilize/burn up the motor box.
You will have to check the timing when your done with removal, mine was only off 2°. Hardest part of the whole job is making and installing a jumper wire between switchboxes (just a little time consuming thats all)1977 Hydrostream Vector 2.5 Promax

What color are the wires? I know none of those boxes are needed. Post a pic of the wires coming out and I can tell you.
Timing is easy. Like super easy. Just get a timing light and crank it and watch.

Gotcha, did some more research and I am going to pull all 3 and have a friend who is going to help me check timing after. Will I still have a hot horn after removing all of this?
