Guys (and Girls):
I've never been able to understand electrical systems. Here is the history and scenario.
1. 1960 Cub with six volt system . Left the push-pull switch 1/2 engaged and battery ran down. Put the charger on it (50 amps -6 volt setting). Forgot to disconnect the starter and charged for 10 minutes ; I then disconnected and went to other work . About two hours later ,the battery blew up.
2. Bought new battery and installed. Ammeter showed discharge only one time. Then went to neutral ,despite turning switch on-off several times.
3. Starter ,with new battery, never budged or responded. New battery puts out 7 volts and there is six volts at starter read from the starter lead .
4. Want to avoid expensive rebuild -- I am really cheap. I have new starter switch (device like solenoid on top of starter that engages with reach rod). Anyway to tell that replacing this will be a fix? Any way to avoid rebuild ?
