So I finally swapped out my starter after the last one which would spin and then grind and take forever before actually getting the boat to start. I inspected the flywheel and while there were some chips I didn?t see any major damage such as missing teeth. After getting the new one all set up I connected the power and it seemed to engage the flywheel just as it should. I brought my boat out, connected the muffs, and tried starting again. The first few attempts seemed good but on my last try it seemed to bind a bit. Now when I turn my ignition the starter just spins and it seems the bendix isn?t popping out to engage the flywheel.
I am going to pull the starter again to inspect it but does anyone have any clue why a new starter would all the sudden just spin and not engage they flywheel?
