Default Starter defies physics?

I have a '62 merc 1000, and have had starter/ignition probs. I cleaned
the starter up, and she spins strong. The problem is, its spinning
the wrong way. The wiring is correctly hooked up, and I'm at a loss.
Any ideas would be appreciated immensely!!!!!!


It's the aliens man - the aliens.

To fix it, you have to take it to Rosewell, NM, put it in the desesrt
and leave it for a day.

The aliens will take care of it.

And if that doesn't work, it's probably what Tim said - I've had that
happen on a tractor starter a time or two. :)
