I just got a newly rebuilt engine. I swapped everything over and I got it sitiing on a box I made in the garage. I want to start it and make sure everything is good before I install it. When I try to crank it the starter engages on the flywheel and just clicks but want turn the motor over. I took the starter to a shop and had it rebuilt. It still does the same thing. I replaced the ring gear before installing the flywheel and I verified it was the correct one and the starter teeth do line up on the flywheel. I have taken out all the spark plugs and the motor spins easily with a wrench. The battery is good. It still looks like a bad starter to me. Anyone have some ideas? Thanks.
