or some advice. Big motor 2001 EFI Mercury just give a humming noise when I try to crank it. New battery yesterday and fully charge so that is out. I have already removed the top and tapped the starter with not results. Suggestions?

take a screw driver and lift the starter drive,squirt a small amount of oil along shaft and see if it is kicking up to fly wheel.

Make sure all the wires are connected back on the battery, I did the same thing a few yrs back. Starter would spin but not engage, had just changed the battery and had left off one the smaller wires.

Before the TFF, a guy would lose a day of fishing and some cash by taking his boat to a mechanic. Now you can find multiple guys that have had the same boat issues within minutes. Pretty cool
