Subject: [MV] M38A1 starter questions; help please.
>Just finishing up with body, frame and running gear restoration, and am
>trying to start the engine. I know this jeep ran prior to my purchase, so
>I'm not real worried about problems deep inside the engine.
>
>I have two new batteries, all new cables, new wiring harness throughout,
and
>good solid ground. When I kick the starter, it sounds like it's not
spinning
>fast enough. I say this, having no frame of reference as to how fast it
>should spin, or how it should sound. Best I can relay is that it sounds
like
>your car does when its really cold, you've let it sit outside all night and
>they you try to crank it over.
>
>Does this sound right, or might I be in need of a starter rebuild?
>
>If it needs to be rebuilt, can any shop that specializes in this type work
>handle a 24V starter? Or do I need to look for someone special?
>
>In your experience, how much should a shop charge for rebuild work?
>
>
>As always, your help is greatly appreciated. I can't wait till I get smart
>enough on this thing to offer help, instead of just ask for it.
>
>Thanks.
