I have a 1983 Mariner 150 horse and It was cranking but this morning I tried to crank and it went very very slow like the battery was dead or something but it isn't, then it just quit cranking and it just clicks when I try it. HELP ME someone please

clicking is battery, charge it and get it load tested.
might be the solenoid but check the battery first.

+1 hopalong, the only other thing I can think of is the starter could be dragging.

Hook a volt meter to the battery and try to start it and see what the voltage drops to. I'm betting the battery is bad also.
