Been working to ready a restored 51 Chevy truck with a GMC 270 motor for first start. All 6V and wired as stock. Got fully charged battery hooked up and checked wiring. With key in OFF position, have 6+ volts at starter (connected directly to battery) and nothing at the coil. Put key in On position and get 6+ volts at positive side of coil. Push down on the starter switch mounted to the starter and nothing. Maybe the connections under this switch aren’t making contact? I can take it apart and check but would like to confirm that’s what the rest of you think I should do. Starter is 1107055 and completely rebuilt. I think I also read somewhere that new stators May have come with some type of melamine on them and if such wasn’t removed, it would keep the starter from turning over? Any help or thoughts would be appreciated!
