I picked up a boat with a mercury force 70 hp outboard,
Trying to see if it will run or at least turn over.
I put cables to the starter and after a few free spinning times it finally went up to the flywheel and turned it really slow and some wires on the side started to smoke, I stopped this immediately.
Can anyone please tell me why the wires are starting to burn and what is the issue with the starter?
I did remove all connections from starter and solenoid and cleaned them really good
