Hi Guys,
I have been having no end of trouble with my ski boat starting, I was told when i bought the boat that it was a standard 350 Chevy block but have since been told that it is a Mercruiser. We have had issues with the starter motor grinding on the flywheel. We have changed the starter motor and flywheel both three times each. This has made no difference, we have tried shimming the the starter motor and measured correct clearance. What i am thinking is maybe the spacing on the Mercruiser and the Chevy may be different but that is just me spitballing.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
