"FIRST MAKE SURE THR BATTERY IS AT FULL CHARGE, IF BATTERY IS SHORTED IT WILL NOT DO ANY GOOD TO JUMP START IT. MAKE SURE BATTERY TERMINALS ARE TIGHT, WHEN TURNING ENGINE OVER CHECK TO SEE IF STARTER IS GETTING WARM."

after you try and start it a couple times see if the battery wires are getting hot thats a sign of a bad terminal or a dirty or loose connection.
You can also get a meter and have someone turn the key as you check the volts at the starter

"#1 rule: Ignore people that tell you to get rid of the motor you have.
#2 suggestion: sounds like your starter is toasted, or needs to be rebuilt.

BUT: before you go swapping parts, try turning the flywheel by hand, just to make sure the crankshaft or engine internals are not binding.
Even better = pull the plugs and then turn the flywheel by hand to check resistance. If it turns freely then, pull the starter motor off and take it to your local AutoZone. Maybe someone there will help you test it off the motor, even though they cannot sell you a new part. They can test car starters... this is just smaller - but same 12 volt system.

That's what I'd do, but I'm always trying to find an inexpensive paperclip fix!"

"I just finished fixing the exact same problem for my 45hp chrysler. Turns out it was the main shaft bearing (brass bushing) in the lower end. This happened to me on the water and had to paddle back
. First i thought. 1. overheat (NO), 2. low battery (NO) 3. bad starter (Nope) then ripped it apart and was siezed bearing. Hope this helps ( it was the one that fits just under the water pump. worth the thought
