Good advice Chris,
The battery is a marine starting battery. It is brand new.
Fortunately, I have anther 35HP Johnson in the shop that is due for restoration. I took the starter out of that motor and put it on this motor. The motor now spins like crazy. I figured, trying a different starter would either confirm or rule out the wiring, solenoid, switch all in one step! I had an extra starter but I do not have an extra wiring harness. So…it looks like its the starter to me. Do you concur??
