This is a shot in the dark, and nothing more. Do a compression test in both directions.

Read your first post, and then ask yourself if you would be able to diagnose it with such limited information.
I will gladly try to help you, but you have to describe exactly what it's doing when it's acting up. Clockwise, and counter clockwise doesn't help either. Some people describe from the front while others describe from the rear. Forward, and reverse is more helpful.

I said test the compression because we recently had a similar problem that was solved with rings. I said it was a shot in the dark with yours because of the limited information that you gave. Maybe it's an engine problem. Maybe it's an electrical problem. We'll never know unless you actually do some testing.

Geez Larry, there is no secret miracle fix. Testing to diagnose is what it takes
