Hey folks,
I recently installed a longblock in a 98 Chris Craft, that was not properly winterized last year. I tranfered everything over from the cracked block and heads, and had it running on a skid without issue, before I put it back in the boat. Now I go to start it, and it wont turn over. I do however get this really loud clicking noise coming from the starter, like its trying to engage, but won't. I have tried a different battery, and a different starter, and I still get this same noise. It kind of has a ringing sound to it too, almost like someone is hitting the flywheel with a hammer repeatedly.
I'm stumped... Thanks in advance for your help!
