Hey, can anyone tell me easiest way to pull the electric starter on this? I can't even see where the starter is. Thanks for any help on this.

They're usually on the front of the engine, below the exhaust. Removing the exhaust is usually required. Is the starter junk?

Not sure yet, new battery and the selenoid just clicks. Gonna check the selenoid out later this week Thanks for the info.

Short the two large starter bolts to see if the starter spins. If it does, the solenoid is bad.
