Sounds like the armature on the starter is bad.

decided a scope is a little easier on my psyche.

Pogden,

you're better of getting a new starter or economize with a re-build for aprox $250. Hey it sounds like you're a Jet's fan that hates So.Fla. I guess it's just jealousy.....

The Jets are alright, just because I still like Ole Joe, I love and miss South Fla. I was born in Miami and grew up fishing the Ten Thousand Islands. Now they have great Cuban food..roast pork and black beans with some plantains on the side, a little espresso [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Its the little thingy mabob that forces the gear up when the motor spins. Mine does it too sometimes. West Marine sells rebuilt ones. Isn't the motor still under warrantee?
As for the Jets thing....forget it....I'll wait till Sunday October 3rd, 4:15pm at Pro Palyer Stadium before I make any comments. <font color="orange"> GO FINS!!!!!

No, I bought it used, damn thing looks brand new, supposedly less than 40 hrs. but it has been sitting for two years. Maybe a little WD-40--electrical spray would help.
