i need help the motor worked fine when i put on the boat and now it will only start if i add jumper cables to my battery to get the extra power to get it to start... any ideas???
 
Motor run Ok after it's started?Profile? You might be close to someone who can help.
Batteries good? Load test them? Take the starter apart and see if the insides need cleaning or any thing is loose.
Do a compression test.Then a spark test.Low comp will make it hard to start.Old battery cables can be bad.The solenoid could be bad(jumper it to test).
Do these things and report the findings.J
