Recently encountered a problem yesterday morning, engine wouldn't start with the key. Which is not at much or a problem as it is an inconvenience. Now, at first, I turned the key, and no noise. Electronics worked, so I pull started and fished all day. As the day went on, when I turned the key, it would make a rapid clicking, almost buzzing sound, but wouldn't start. So I assumed dead battery. Or at least dead to the point where it didn't have enough juice to start the engine. When I got home, I threw the battery on the charger but still could not get the motor to start. Same clicking/buzzing just a little stronger. Could it be a bad battery? Or am I looking at a starter problem? I haven't gotten around to trying with a "good" battery yet to see if that's in fact the problem.

first check battery and cable connections make sure clean and battery up ,make sure you are getting good amperage to starter before ruling bad starter,
