Jumped it the relay and the starter runs but doesn't engage. Battery is good Solenoid on starter maybe? I'm old and tired and got CRS (can't remember stuff) What now ? Thanks

Open it up & good visual & should be apparent EDIT 1st, check (clean if need be) the posts/cables Last edited by RapidRobert; 01/19/12 10:36 PM. live every 24 hour block of time like it's your last day on earth
