This weekend I took my boat to a local lake, and it ran great the whole time. <br /><br />Immediately after leaving the lake on Sunday, we headed to the coast and fished monday all day, with no trouble.<br /><br />Tuesday, while fishing and about to move, I tried to start the engine up and just got a 'click-click, buzzz'. I know for a fact the battery is fine, it's got plenty of juice to power the rest of the accessories on the boat, but the starter wouldn't turn. The tilt/trim was working, so I thought at first it was the starter. So, I got the pull cord out and started it, and we were on our way. While planing out, I tried to trim the engine, and now the trim wasn't working? Weird..<br />I leave it as it is, and get to the next spot...we fish for a while and are ready to move again. Just for grins, I turn the key, and it starts right up?!?! Trim works, everything's good.<br /><br />Park again, fish a little longer, and try to move. No starter, no tilt/trim, and now when I press the tilt/trim button, my overheat buzzer sounds.(the one that chirps when you start the engine to let you know it's working). I also noticed that when I hold the tilt/trim button in place, the tach will read gradually lower, the longer I hold the switch down. <br /><br />The engine still runs great, I just dont have trim or a starter.<br /><br />The only other problem I've been having is this:<br />While idling for more then 30sec. to a minute, the engine starves of fuel. I have to prime the bulb, or it will die. I dont think this is electrical related though...and I'm making a seperate post for this.<br /><br />If you have any ideas, please let me know. First thing I'm going to do is check the terminals on my battery on/off switch, and then look at the wiring under my binnacle throttle controls.<br /><br />Thanks in advance!
