On the bench, get a GOOD ground on the starter metal. Touch the power post with voltage and see how it runs. Keep starter held down to avoid gyro spin/torque jump. Report. It seems the lug on starter looks turned 90 deg? Right is right, even if everyone is against it, and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it. - William Penn
