hello everyone,i heard many good things about this board and looking forward to your help.<br />i am new to boating,so excuse my not knowing what parts are called. my problemis i bought a new boat this summer and it worked fine until last weekend. the electric starter on my 75hp 1990 mercury ob spins, but doesn't engage the flywheel. if i remove the cover and move the part that has teeth and engages the flywheel, after a couple tries it engages, sometimes it just works fine, but when hot it appears to just spin. what do i need to do? thanks in advance.<br />ps. i looked at previous posts, but i am afraid i didn't understand some of the tech terms, can someone please help me in plain words. i also bought a manual and not mech challanged. thanks
