I put a newly rebuilt starter (worked when I installed after rebuild ) about 2 years ago. Jubilee has been out in the elements since. Won't actuate, now. Nothing happens when I push the starter. Wiring is old and Haven't cleaned terminals, etc. Didn't really expect it to work. Put a freshly charged 12 v on the starter post and got ground and sparks. Still nothing from the starter. Am searching the archives, but it is a tedious search there. Lots of posts there, but haven't found anything revelant, yet. I suspect taking the starter off is in order, but what then? I bought DM 200 digital multimeter (Electro-Mate ) from NAPA, but I don't know the specifics of what to test. Need some help there. I am going to Ford New Holland Tomorrow. I'm going to buy some wire and will probably need some parts. What are the standard replacement parts for this situation. here are some tests I made. Don't know what they mean, if anything: Using the 6 v tractor battery I got: voltage regulator ground to the terminal block--6.77volts
voltage regulator ground to terminal block--6.77 volts
the battery tested at 6.7 volts starter button wire to ground--6.77 volts starter switch when on .2+ohms Hope this helps. I'm beginning with the starter so that I can begin restoring oil pressure. On this issue I have followed all the advice on locating the bolt( beneath the water pump and to the left, but still can't find the Pressure Relief valve spring location. Sorry about the long post, but as you can tell I am really new at this. oslo in nc
