Re: Starter question

What Howard said, even if your cables look good, doesn't mean they are good. I had a similar problem. My 47 cranks slow as all 47 's do, but it would not start. I don't think that it fired but only on a couple of cylinders, not enough to get it running. I was thinking about looking at rebuilding the Starter, but I figure changing out the cables first would be a lot easy. I built new cables put them on and if fired right up. Checking the voltages like Howard said should tell you if your cables are good or not, that is if you have the correct gauge cables.
Hope this helps.
