Hi fellers!
Still can`t get my WD to start.It started & ran fine this spring.New cables,battery is fully charged,coil is good.Starter engages,but won`t quite turn the engine over.Could it be the starter or the condenser?What would happen if I tried to start it with a 12 volt battery?
Any help appreciated,Don.

What size cables did you get?? if they are the small diameter like 12 volt uses, they will not work. Need to be the big diameter cables. Roger

You say the cables are new, but just to be safe I would remove, clean n wire brush then reattach each n every battery n starter n ground cable and make sure the ground cable is to a clean tight main frame type bolt. You may wanna have the battery load tested just to be safe. Then if shes still a slow cranker, I agree with Old it may well be the starter is simply bad. If thats the case 12 volt may make her crank fast for a while but the starter is probably gonna need attention. It may just need new brushes or bushings and hopefully the armature is still okay.

The condenser has nothing to do with the engine not turning over. I would pull the starter off and have it checked. Starters do get weak and when they do they will not turn the engine over. Yes you could try a 12 volt battery but if you ran it long that way you might burn up the coil and or the points
