3.0 Merc Cruiser. Last year I had the starter rebuilt by the Marina. So I am not sure if it is the starter. YOu turn the key and sometime it starts and sometimes you just hear the celinoid click. YOu always here the celinoid click if it doesnt start when you turn the key. It been doing this from the beginning and now has gotten worse. The starter went under water and had to be rebuilt. But before that you could turn the switch once and it would click and then turn it again and then it would start.<br />HOw can you test a starter without taking it out? So as to narrow down the problem? I think it could be a short in the throttel and else where but i would like to rule out the starter.<br />Thanks in advance for any help you can give
