The starter has the two selonoid the big one on starter and smaller one on top.the two wires on smaller selonoid are hot,if you jump it with a ground the engine turns over but won't start. You think it might be a safety issue or sensor? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeH Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 (edited) The two hot wires threw me for a loop when we were getting a spare engine running in a parts truck we bought. It uses a switched ground to run the solenoid. So both sides will test hot, but the power can't travel til you supply a sufficient ground.
