i just replaced the starter switch with an aftermarket dash mounted type.
the starter just got a little adjusting to allow the starter gear to throw a little furthur inward. I can bench start the starter and the solenoid moves the starter gear where it should be and the gear starts spinning. looks fine to me. i install the starter and wire it correctly, testing the wiring with a volt/oohm meter. then i go to turn over the motor with the ignition disconnected. i turn the key to the acc position and everything comes on. then i turn the key to the start position and the engine starts turning over. but when i release the key, the starter continues to turn over the engine. (this is where i preach the importance of having a main power shut off switch) LOL could it be the stupid switch? it releases under no load senario. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |
