Big trouble?!
Took the boat out today and about 4 the motor came up with a problem I don't like very much. I tried starting her and the first time she almost fired but then killed. Then I tried again and the starter made a bad high pitched noise. I took the cover off and the starter was turning fine, but the "flywheel" or whatever when the starter spun up had seized up, creating major resistance. The resistance was enough that when I tried starting her I could see the gears on the starter starting to strip. Is this an internal problem? Piston?
On an 89 35 horse merc, am I looking at major overhaul - or just getting rid of it and getting a new motor?
