Hello. This is my first post here. This is the second new starter i have put on in the last 2 weeks. Both have done the same thing. After attaching them and hooking them up, I started the motor. Both time the motor started fine and ran for a minute. I turned the key off, the motor stopped, but when i went to restart the motor the starter piston did not raise up to engage the flywheel. The first time i thought it was a faulty starter. I sent it back and got a new one. The second one did the exact same thing. It spins but does not raise to engage the flywheel. It is a 1976 Johnson, 115hp. If anyone has any ideas i would greatly appreciate it. Thank You.
