I have a 1999 Tahoe Tracker I/O with Mercruiser 4.3L. Last time on the lake it suddenly wouldn't start. I could hear the starter run but motor wouldn't turn over. This was after driving all day without a problem. When I brought it home I went through the usual testing:
-battery is less than a year old and tests fine --fully charged
-pulled the starter out an it works fine on bench testing --bendix pops over without hesitation, starter is about 2 years
-good ground from the battery to motor
-starter solenoid seems okay because the starter will turn over --seems like if solenoid isn't working usually people just hear a click
-all wiring looks good and without corrosion
What should I try next?
Shouldn't the starter be okay in the motor if it bench tests okay?
What am I missing???
Thanks!
