Think water damage. does anyone sell rebuilt or new replacements? looked at the usual on line parts and didnt see anything. If it cools off later will pullit and see what inside looks like.

I recommend keeping the old one until you know that the new one works as it should. You may be able to clean up the contacts and maker her work again. Never know what a little TLC will do to these old trucks/parts! Good luck!

You can also touch a battery cable to the starter lug momentarily to see if the motor will spin, without unbolting the whole starter. Rock Auto sells replacement switches. The same switch works for both 6V and 12V starters. www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=445442&cc=1326091&pt=4188&jsn=619Jerry

Your local rebuilder likely already has the info, but if not, you can certainly show him the document pictures for help in tracking down parts if needed.

Would be helpful for folks if you could share. Edit note - On second thought, isn't yours a 6V? He's looking for a 12v stomp starter, which has a different drive unit than yours.
