Yea. I think the starter is the problem.
I cleaned all wires and a jump didn't
Start it.
So where does one buy the starter you mentioned? I have one big red cable from
the battery and three smaller wires. What a pain to change this thing. Be
awesome to buy one local instead of ordering. It does weight a ton!
Or maybe people can rebuild these?
Thanks
