I've been looking at a 1950 77 for a friend with a starter that won't crank the engine at all-usually just a click and "unnh". No solenoid involved, just the big stomp on it type switch on the dash. It will
crank/start intermittently and run well. He's already put a remac starter on it. Shorting the starter switch doesn't help, nor does jumping direct from the new and charged 6v battery to the starter. Cables
seem OK with no resistance, but am replacing anyway. It has a negative ground & I think it could be pos ground? But he says when it's running the amp meter reads the way it should, and that shouldn't matter
to the starter anyway. We've used a lot of hot lubricating words on it. What should be looking/trying next?????
Thanks!
