Ok the battery was cleared by NAPA and it's not the issue. Would have loved for that to be the problem.
I have rewired the carb starter to the solenoid and got the exact same issue. I also upgraded both the connections to the carb starter just in case. Not sure where else to check. Im about to try the suggestion above about putting a 50 Amp fuse in line with the wire going from the generator to the solenoid. But not untill I fully understand the suggestion so explanations welcome.

Will have NAPA check both my new battery and an old backup Thursday. There are several issues I've had that could be blamed on this battery.

Thank you guys. I know some don't advise it but this is my daily driver. I drive 2 miles a day but I have to be able to get the kids to practice and everytime I interact with you guys i gain confidence in what I'm doing.

Thanks man. I keep googling it and getting different years. I forget how to find something and I'm useless.

Thank you for this. I was wondering if I could just disconnect both ends and rewire it my self useing some zip ties to keep it attached to the harness that the original runs through. But I don't know electricity well and the old timer across the street has been busy. Lol You said 10 gauge but when I googled it I saw a guy saying 8 gauge. When I looked into the wiring diagram there is no mention of wire sizes. I found a packard wire chart for lights but I think you guys all just know that 10 gauge is best. With you guys behind me this car will live forever.

A friend mentioned that this may be the problem too. I will make sure I test my battery because it's always acted funny but you can never tell if it's me, the car or the battery. Thank you.

Man I got her driving yesterday and thought it was fixed. I felt unstoppable. Only for it to happen again today. I found a couple things that are wired poorly and got to poking around some more and found this flimsy connection

Thank you, sometimes I forget the basics and just pace and cuss. I bench tested the starter and it engages and spins right up. Once I put it back on the car and tried to start it it didn't whir any more and now something is making a static kind of sound.
