Just got a boat with this motor. It cranked earlier in the year and I’ve been working on the deck. I took it out the day and it wouldn’t crank. I opened the cowling and noticed that both plastic c cap that go from the throttle body to the timing plate were broken. The electric starter now just clicks when I try to start it. The starter is pushing the flywheel and timing plate until the plate hits the stop. It appears that the timing plate/coil is stuck with the flywheel. Has anyone seen this before? I’m going to get a wheel puller to remove the flywheel and take a look.

Just got the flywheel off and it looks like 2 of the magnets are destroyed. Can they be replaced or do I need to get a new flywheel?
