All first post: Truck slow to turn over and hard to start-6 volt. Bought truck about a year ago always slow turning over and required fuel after sitting to start, PO gave me spares, which looks like similar issues as there are 3 or 3 of the following, carbs and fuel pumps.
completed the following:
charged and tested battery-spins over slow, starts on ether
removed all battery cables and cleaned ground paint/oil off bell housing and reconnected, with fully charged battery spins much better, will start on ether and dies
continued to diagnose-while trying to start, engine will not turn over, moves by hand, starter sounds like it is not engaging
try to trouble shoot starter by removing-all cables and wiring removed, stomp starter disconnected.
[b]I have unbolted the starter but it will not come free of the motor moves toward radiator about 1/4-3/8 inch, not sure I should pry on the starter,
any help appreciated, thanks[/b]
