So while you're bickering....
"YukonBound" wrote in message ... "Tim" wrote in message ... Maybe, andc maybe not. If anything else you might be able to get them at a lawnmower shop. United tech makes starters fo Kohler and a bunch of other applications. and the kit with new springs etc are cheap, or should be. Retail on the set shouldn't be over $10.00 USD. Yes, If you take the solonoid and jump the two larger posts with say, some needle-nose pliers or about anything that can cross the larger copper contact bolts the motor ought to spin and engage that is, if you knwo you have good quality power going to the solonoid switch on the battery cable side. If that all works good, then the starter is alright. I do'n't know if the Johnson/Evinrude was positive or nevative engage, though. They used both. Anyhow, lets sat it is positive engage, so cross the small switch terminal to the battery cable, and if the solnoid only 'clicks' then it could be defective, THEN cross the larger terminals and see if you can put direct power to the starter. If it runs then solenoid could be suspect. But with the info that Tom said, I'd be a bit suspicious of the button switch, and spraying it with contact cleaner may help but it's not a cure. BTW, the companie[s] I deal with... two have canadian warehouses, and should honor my account number. I haven't tried that yet. But regardless If you need something that I can supply for you, my cost is your cost. Ask Bob Puharic. If I can help further Don, send me an email Thanks Tim. Maybe I should check the local dealers for a new start button. We have a few around but did lose one to fire during the February boat show. Maybe. |
