I have twin 454 340hp merc.
My port motor starter died. I purchsed a new one on ebay for $85 I installed and my motor wont start.
I think both my motors spin the same way that i dont have reverse rotaion on the motors but on the trassmissions???
I was able to get the old starter to work. if i lay it down in front of me and put a jumper box on it the old one spins ccw looking from the back
the new one spins cw. looking from the back
so what kind of starter do i need? i know when the starter hits the fly wheel it spins the motor a different direction.
thanks for the help
