Re: Trying to start my 72
No updates. I took the starter off and got it tested. Good news is the starter is good. The bad news is there was a wire that broke right at the connector and that is what caused it to not engage. I will have to either just add a new connector or replace the whole wire. I'm pretty sure I can just add a new connector. I may be selling the set of original hub caps which will fund my exploration to see what kind of condition the motor is in. I noticed that there was only 46K miles on the truck. I saw an old ticket that my dad had taken it somewhere to have the valves adjusted because of knocking. No specifics. It was just a work ticket. I will get it running very soon. I will update with pictures and maybe a video of it running. Dropping off the carburetor this weekend to get rebuilt.
