here is what happens lately. for awhile there has been a small hiccup if you will with the starter but the motor always started just fine like that. i have recently had trouble starting this motor at all and it seemed to just be an old battery that didn't have the voltage to crank the motor over. i now have brand new batteries and they are always charged when i leave for the lake. heres what it does now. it cranks no matter what you do and doesn't start. then it goes to a slow crank like the battery is dead and then won't crank at all. then 5 minutes later it is fine and starts great. so we go fishing for a little bit, then try to start the motor to go to a different spot and it wont crank at all. then a little while later it's as if there is nothing wrong and it starts just fine. any input would be greatly appreciated, my fishing trips have not been too fun lately.
