I just got a 1995 Johnson 90hp and I got the guy i bought if off to turn it over for me and it started fine. Got it home and hooked it up to the old battey that the other outboard ran off and it would not turn over. when i turned the key the alarm sounded to tell me it's ready and the trim works so i go and try to turn it over and nothing except for a tiny bit off smoke off the battery terminals and it arched on the battery. Any ideas??/ Could it be the battery is just too old or to small. It was used to start an 78 Johnson 115 before. Thanks
