1970 gas 3020. Last summer began intermitent problem of not cranking when key turned to start. Sometimes clicking, sometimes nothing. Cranked and started right up with srew driver accross two lugs on the solenoid on top of the starter. Has become more frequent problem. Acknowledge from historic threads it may variety of causes but am thinking to replace solenoid, or what I think to be the solenoid, which I understood to be the small cylindrical arrangemnet on top of the starter. However, as I study the project it appears not to be detachable but instead, part of the starter. Am I offbase in my thinking?
If the starter must come off, there appears to be two easily accessed bolts on the outside and at least one in the back that is not easy to get at. Is that correct and can the one in back be reached with a socket and extensions? Other issues that I haven't properly considered? Thanks.
