Hey guys. I know there are some excellent electrical guys on here so I wanted to seek some help. I just bought a 1950 Chevrolet Deluxe Car with a 235 engine (later truck engine). I have no idea how long this car has been sitting, but it has been a good while. I hooked a battery up and was going to try and start the engine. Now....this is nothing like I'm used to with working on old tractors becuase the starter is wayyy down there and very hard to get to. I also don't have 15-16 parts cars like I do with the tractors.
THis starter has the large solenoid mounted on top of it. I was having to use a screwdriver to jump the terminals to engage the starter and the screwdriver slipped and hit the "small" terminal on the solenoid. It barely touched that terminal and it broke it loose from the plastic solenoid housing. All wires are still commected up. When I engage the starter, all the starter will do is spin.....the bendix is not engaging. I'm sure it is just stuck from setting so long.
I could use some tips and tricks to get the starter working, and get it working with it in the car if possible becuase I have no idea how I can remove it.
