something not to do with a starter

[Bill_Proctor]

It turns out that if you take the starter apart on your boat and you reverse the housing with the magnets in it the motor runs in reverse and will not engage with the engine and start the motor. Cost me a fishing trip this morning.

I took apart a starter once. Lesson learned: never do that again.
