Well it still won't start BUT:

Thanks to HH56 for the illustations. I think I had the plunger in up-side down. The detailed diagrams helped to figure it out.

Thanks to 49 Pack for the linkage suggestions. I tried this first because it was the easiest, but unforetunetly, it didn't help.

Thanks to Owen, as always, the idea about jumping the terminals worked. The starter turned over! I took it apart again and tried to clean the contacts as best as I could, but it still didn't work. I guess I need to replace the switch or less there is another trick to try.

kanter is listing the part as $98 used or $195 new. This seems a little expensive. Any other sources?

Thanks again guys, you're the best!
