So I'm checking my 1993 GTX and at this point I'm almost certain that the starter is bad.
But I want to make sure that the engine isn't seized. I'm NOT experienced with PWC, but I found where the engine can be cranked by hand (directly behind the motor under the plastic cover, right?).
My question is: how hard should it be to turn the crank? I can turn it, but it requires a decent amount of force. It doesn't spin freely or anything. What does this mean?
Is there any other method than just grabbing it with my hand and turning it?
Please advise.
