Engine was runnning fine, all of a sudden when I try to start with electric start it turns over very slowly and will not start. Engine starts first pull on pull start.<br />Any ideas?
Check all your wiring from the starter back. Be sure they are all clean and tight. If everything is ok, try jumping the 2 big wires on the solenoid. Be careful because sparks will fly. If the starter still turns slowly, have the starter rebuilt or replaced. If it tries to start normally, replace the solenoid.

Appriciate the response, we completed those items you listed and it looks like the starter is bad. I had it rebuilt not less then a month ago. Could it still be the starter?
