Hi all,

125 gt

So found starter motor dead (it was basically destroyed inside) replaced only to find out new starter motor struggles to turn engine.

It does turn it but very slow.

I changed:

bendix
Voltage regulator
Starter relay
Positive cable

I know it is not the battery as I connected to a big car

I know it is not any electric as I connected jump cables directly to starter motor

Engine is not seized as I can turn pulley freely by hand.

What the hell am i facing here?

Thank you so much for the help.
