Seriously, take it to the shop. . . let the guys with expertise, experience, and proper diagnostic tools check it out for you. . . Believe me - it will save you a lot of headaches, heartaches, and money, in the long run - and make for alot more pleasant and carefree season of boating.

The solenoid ground terminal is disconnected, and when you connect it to ground the starter spins?
If that happens any time when the keyswitch is *NOT* in the "start" position, the solenoid is stuck closed and needs replacing.
