All you really need is the starter solenoid. Much less $$$

gostranger · 10-13-2011, 06:26 AM

here is a pic of the starter and the seloniod

padresag · 10-13-2011, 09:33 AM

it doesn't look like anything exotic. years ago one used to be able to buy a solenoid repair kit, which consisted of pretty well everything on the plastic end. usually it is just the contacts inside(the round disc) that caused the problem. you may be able to rob a post from another old one unless you cracked the cap. starter solenoids do not seem to have changed much in 70 0r 80 years esp on the cap end
just cannot understand the unavailability of finding one
