Hi All,

Just thought I would seek the wisdom of the Loops.

When I start my 70 Ambo it starts right up but because the battery is
getting older there is a slight hesitation on the starter when I hit the
starter button. It is almost like the engine starts to turn...hits maximum
compression and then stops moving for a second and then turns over and fires
up.

My question is......Am I risking burning something with this starter getting
hung up? I keep thinking that while my finger is pressed on the starter
button and the engine isn't turning there is something getting hot.

Thanks in advance...Ian
