Hell yes I get ****ed off when **** breaks. What do you do, celebrate
the opportunity for its potential as a learning experience?

Sort of...I do...especially if I have an older boat. I would expect
stuff to break and not blame everyone else like some sort of a mental
case.
Maybe if you did take it as a learning experience and learned to deal
with it like an adult and learn to fix things instead of having a
whiny little ****y fit your life would be better and no need for
shinks since you get ****ed off at them too...you are a real
headcase...you need to be told that.

Do not ever go to the doctor. Fix what ails you yourself. You are the
headcase. Get a shrink. Whoops, you can not do that as you have to heal
thyself.


Having a whiny little ****y fit?.....lol.....
Calif Bill.....What a freekin idiot!

Just got my boat back from the shop for new throttle cable, trim seals
and oil tank overfilling.

I get home, want to test boat, hook up the water, turn key and all's I
get is a spinning of the starter motor.

I see that the gear of the starter motor is below the flywheel,
basically spinning free. I'm not much of a mechanic, but I can
surmise that the starter gear must somehow mesh with the flywheel to
turn the motor over. Looking at the service manual, it doesn't look
like anything complicated. Is the starter gear supposed to move up on
the shaft as it spins? I don't get it!!! I am mad as heck.

The photos in the manual have me just as confused, some of the photos
show the starter gear below the flywheel and others seem to show it
meshed together.

Ever hear of a "bendix"? as the starter spins the gear moves up the
shaft.

So it sounds like it's stuck. What's best way to free it?

Lots of times it's just stuck a little. Spray a little WD-40 on it,
move it up and down a few times with your hand, then try it with the
key. If it then works, apply a little spray lithium grease.
