either on the "other" forum, or on this one, somebody talked about working on the marine version of the 6.9 and 7.3 diesels. anyone remember who it was--i have a ford starter, got off ebay, and is def a powerstroke starter. but its weird. the nose cone is longer than normal, so wont work. also, the solenoid has two 10m/m terminals, instead of a 10 and a 8m/m terminal. would like to know what this animal came off of--thanks all.
