Won't Start
Looking for ideas. I removed my engine from my 69 bus and following
the instillation I find that the motor won't start, the starter won't even turn over. I check the connections on the starter and all are fine and test out well.l I did replace the starter however following this issue I put the old one back in and still no luck. Battery is charged and everything appears to be hooked up correctly. If you have any suggestions I would appreciate it. Thanks. Bill |

That's via the crankshaft pulley / fan belt, with transmission in neutral. You should be able to turn it over very slowly against compression pressure (which will leak away). John |

I,d have a guess at the ignition switch. If the "start" position doesnt send
12 volts to solenoid it will do exactly as you say. "John Henderson" > wrote in message ... > FC Bill wrote: > >> The problem is electrical > > Do you hear the starter solenoid engage (a heavy clunk) when the > key is turned to start? > > John |

Thanks for the information. I checked out all of the connections and had good power to the solenoid frome the battery and the switch, as it turns out it was a dirty connection on the hot wire from the ignition switch. Once I cleaned the connection I was in business. Thanks again to all |
