June 24, 201016 yr Author comment_447117 well i went down to my nearest engine machinist and was asking him for prices for decking/ mild port etc etc, he said dw dw ill look after you ive handed him $500 so far waiting for him to ring me back with the full price. anyways. today i fitted a new relay for the starter motor. all good but wont turn over. relay is fitted correctly 100% sure of that. (i fitted a test light to the output, when key is at crank the light comes on) the wire has contenuitly. i pulled down the starter lastweek and gave it a goooood clean. didnt touch the solenoid tho? its one of those tiny starters so i don't need to pull the manifold off to get it out :yes: NFI! its gotta be the solenoid Report
