Re: 74 evinrude starflight 115 V4 cranking problems

I would try hooking up a battery to the solenoid to crank it over. It may be tough to get a good connection going directly to the starter. I keep an extra set of battery cables around off of a parts motor to use for this purpose. Jumper cables probably won’t work either for the same reason.. poor connection. If it still cranks slow, test the starter with an inductive amp meter to see if it’s drawing to much current.
