This morning the caribbean took one daughter to school. Half of the second grade was waving to me as I drove off, which was fun. The brought my younger daughter to Kindergarten, then stopped by the Bank on my way to work.....After the stop at the Bank, she did not want to start. I could hear a light click, and see some voltage drop on my gauge. After a few minutes and some tapping on the solenoid and starter, she turned over! I guess like Kevin in his 54 Panama, I will do a partial starter rebuild. It would be nice to use a new solenoid, brushes and bushings to get the starter cleaned up and reliable. Winter projects are lining up.
