Default Re: Stupidest thing you did on your project

Replaced a starter on a 350 chevy inboard (23 Dusky) while doing some other motor work...for three weeks the boat would not run...sounded great when turning over, but wouldn't start. Spent many days trying to figure it out. Then when standing by the exhaust muffler while it was being turned over...i heard a sucking noise... that's when i realized the starter was spinning backwards...after that if fired right up :-)
