Ok I get home like 10 minsute ago and decide to try it again. I turn the key I can here my starter trying to engauge, I can hear the bendix hitting the flywheel.
So I turn in a few more times then it starts up. I turned it off and restarted again 3 more times and it starts up fine. I'm not totally happy due to i don't understand what I just done.

I've worked on marine starter systems before, could it be maybe the teeth weren't lining up proper to turn?
