datzenmike Posted June 30, 2017 Report Share Posted June 30, 2017 It's the roundish part on the left with the rod sticking out of the bottom. This rod pushes down to hold the secondary closed. Vacuum above a diaphragm pulls it up and opens it. You will have to hold the throttle about 1/2 open to release the interlock (not shown) so you can move it by hand. 1 Quote Link to comment
Brandon.fair Posted July 4, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 I'll check it soon when I get a free min. But in the mean time here is a video of the starter problem I was talking about earlier 1 Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 The solenoid does two things with a single action. It levers the starter gear out and makes contact and meshes with the ring gear on the flywheel, and physically connects the battery to the starter windings, like a huge switch. Next time you are on the 'dead spot', place in neutral and use a remote starter switch directly connected to the starter solenoid. This eliminates a weak start signal from the ignition switch. Does this make it work???? No? Next time you are on this 'dead spot', take the starter out and look at the starter ring on the flywheel. If it is not obviously damaged and the teeth look uniform, then I would say the solenoid is not connecting the battery to the starter winding. The loud click is the gear meshing with the flywheel, but you do not hear the starter turning. 1 Quote Link to comment
