    2001 Challenger 1800 Starter Replacement

    I have the Mercury M2 210HP motor. When they put it back in the water last week, the service manager at our marina said they had a hard time starting the motor. The starter would spin, but it would not pop up. He took the starter apart, cleaned it, and got it to work, but recommended that it...
