I got the dreaded grind and I'm in the process of replacing the starter drive. But I'm wondering if my flywheel teeth are shot too. I don't know what it should look like so I took some pics of mine and I'm hoping you guys could shed some light for me.
It's a 1988 Mariner 90hp OB.
Do the teeth look spent? I'm afraid I'll just chew up my new starter drive again if my flywheel is spent.
