Starter suddenly stopped engaging flywheel while in Lake. I wrapped a piece of rope around the flywheel and started it and brought it back to the dock. It then started fine. Tried starting it a few more times, now starter does not engage, just spins. Battery is new, connections are good. Tried to jumpstart motor with my truck, starter just spins. Tried a small amount of PB blaster on bendix shaft, starter still will not engage. I don't know everything about these things, but have read a lot of posts, and cannot figure out what's wrong with mine. Any ideas? Also, not sure if you are supposed to be able to, but I tried tapping/pushing starter up onto flywheel and it will not budge. Thanks!
