My motor was running fine all day until I started it up after making a pitstop. Once we arrived at our spot, I turned the ignition off. I heard a loud humming noise coming from the engine and discovered it was the starter making the noise. The pinion was down but it was still making noise. I tried pulling the kill switch but it kept running. I disconnected the battery and this stopped it. Back at the dock I hooked the battery back up and this time the motor kept turning over, (ignition off, kill switch pulled). I had to disconnect the starter leads b4 I could trim up th engine and trailer it home.
