With all plugs pulled and the starter (manual or motor) is still having a hard time, drop the lower unit and try again. If it is still hard, then it is time to remove head and do an open and inspect of the cylinders.

If the starter is giving you trouble???
Take it apart and see what's the problem.
If it's ok? then do the comp test and then drop the lower.
