1. Rule out a battery issue. Do you have a crossover you can engage to link all your batteries together to start an engine?
2. It could be a starter issue. If #1 fails, you may need to consider pulling it for a rebuild. Before doing that, you can give it a couple good whacks with a rubber mallet. That sometimes will work to disengage a stuck gear and give you one more start.
Perhaps (way out there theory) that if the engine spooled-up fast enough when you started it, the starter did not have time to fully disengage. Might mean a fried starter, but given the fact it won’t engage/turnover at all, I’d focus there or with a battery issue first.
