My always dependable Super C is acting up. I had to move it out of the barn last Saturday to make some room in the barn. It started right off and was charging and running just fine. When it came time to put it back in the barn it was after dark and 40 mph winds and getting ready to pour rain. It is converted to 12 volt with a key kill switch and still has the pull rod starter rod. When I turned on the key the little dummy light in the wire to the alt came on as normal. But when I pulled the starter rod sparks shot off the pos post of the battery and the motor made no attempt to start what so ever. The pos cable was a bit loose so I wiggled it around a bit trying to get a better contact. Same result, sparks but no start. After a few attempts I had to abort and push it back into the barn a head of the rain. Is my problem at the sparking connection or should I look at the button on top of the starter? The lights and everything work just fine. Hoping for an easy fix. Thank you, Paul
