When I step on the pedal to start my S55 gas, 6volt system, nothing happens. Key is on. Battery is charged. Just wont go. I can pull start it fine, runs great. Turn it off, and try to kick start it, and just nothing. I put my volt meter on the starter post, and it reads 6 volts. I am suspecting something in the starter, and I was hoping to get some things to do/look for here. I did take the lever connector off the starter and I think the contacts do look ok. I should have put the (-) battery to the main starter post to see if the starter jumped, I thought of that after. I will be doing that today when the rain stops.

Anything else?

If you find its your starter, If its the brushes its an easy fix. Mine had 2 brushes gone and it wouldn't start. I went to autozone spent 4.00 and was back in business.

I have the starter on the bench now. I I couldnt get it to energize at all with a battery and cables. Wouldnt jump at all. I have a friend how may be able to help me diagnose teh starter, so I may be in good shape. I see Value Bilt sells new reconds for 130$ too. Hopes its the 4$ brushes you talk about.

Look for starter bolt going in to far and hitting fly wheel and locking up engine

OK. I am a poor mechanic at best, and electrics are my worst, but I am thinking that you mean pull the starter, and see if there is a bind there. So today I will pull starter, looks like three bolts. And see what we shall see.

Thanks
