I'm the recent new owner of a 22'6" Dusky with a Volvo Penta TAMD41B. When I bought it, it was cranking right up. It sat for about a week while I was waiting on an exhaust elbow. When I went to start it up, it would turn the engine very slowly, but wouldn't start. I cleaned up all of the terminals between the starter and the battery and had the same result... then I had a result of no turn over. I replaced the starter that I assumed I burnt out.
Now, When I go to start the engine, the pulleys, belts, and crankshaft all turn a couple of degrees and then back off when I release the starter. I tried turning the front pulley with a piece of square tubing, but it seems very resistant to budging. As a precaution, I pulled to stern drive case to make sure it really is in neutral (just in case the selector was misaligned).
Any ideas?
