Hi everyone!
Have got relatively new 40hp 2stroke outboard.
Took the boat out two weeks ago, everything was perfectly fine. Came back home, plugged the hose, washed the salt off and out. Disconnected the battery. Done.
Took it out yesterday, didn't start. The starter engaged the flywheel but cranked it extra slow with some squeaky sound. Tried the battery from the car - same.
Returned. Checked the voltage with multimeter - 12,6v. Disconnected the starter wire. Turned the key on - solenoid clicked. Checked the voltage at the solenoid - 12,6v. Checked the voltage at the starter wire - 10v when cranks.
Took the starter off for a bench test. Spins perfect, small gear rises up.
What do you think?
