And it sounds like you toasted the EZ-Start motor....
 
Perhaps it's a bit dirty? Have you tried to take the motor apart? It's a pretty simple one so there should be too much trouble. It may just need some cleaning. I'd clean the bushings and the comm to see if that helps...
 
ok, I am not into electric moters and stuff, but my friend is so i'll have him help me. thanks
 
If you tosted the ez starty motor there only like 5 bucks i think but maby less.. I've replaced mine before too and it sounded like what happened to you happened to me.. so i got a new one and it worked perfect.
 
yeah your right at my lhs have them for 6 bucks i'll go there today and get one:cross:
