need some help here. went out today, launched from the doc, started and ran fine.
get to the spot, turn it off.
tweaked her throttle out on her ski.
we go to start, and i hit my start button. i get like a sound from the electrical box, kind of like a buzzing relay or something.
the started doesn't engage. pumps work, so it's not a battery issue.
i open the hood hit the button and again noise from the electrical box.
i do it again, sounds like the starter engages once, then a puff of smoke from the exhaust manifold/starter area.
did the starter fry?
no i get nothing, so is a fues or relay now blown?
i have the factory B pipe on. does all of that have to come out to remove the starter? and the manifold too?
where and how should i start troubleshooting?
thanks
ruined the day thats for sure
