Thanks for the near-instantaneous replies, guys.
Cool1: Correct.

Definetly thrusts out, but doesn't seem to turn. The reason The starter is off the motor is because I was trying to do a comp test (engine sitting on garage floor) and the start motor was making a noise but not turning the engine, so thought better make sure the starter works first.

if the starter does not turn, the touch the battery +ve to the 'other' nut on the solenoid (where the wire goes into the starter). this should turn the motor alone.
if that doesn't work, somethings wrong with the starter motor.
|
I don't quite understand the 'other nutpart - is that next to the spade terminal, and much smaller than the large nut the battery +ve attaches to?
