    Starter Solenoid?

    Starter Solenoid?

    selenoid may have sticky contacts or the start button may have sticky contacts either way the starter can't run without juice so those 2 options needs a look at my money is on a sticky start button because shutting the main switch dropped the selenoid / starter

    1990ish Evinrude 6hp not idling
