Just put electric start on my 1992 merc. When i first put it on and hit the button something smoked so i let off and disconnected the battery. After checking all the connections i retried it and it just clicked. The motor still started fine with the pull start, although it would cut out at half throttle (carb issue unrealated i hope.).
I know the starter, battery, and solenoid are good from testing them on another motor. Grounds from negative battery cable and neutral switch are good.
I can only think of two possible things either the rectifier (dont know if that has any relation to clicking issue) or the actual starter button... (but the solenoid clicks so it seems to be working.
Any help, Ideas?
Thanks
