I had my starter rebuilt and the battery replaced with a tested one. Starter tested in a shop. Fixed up old worn out electric connections. The starter revs when I turn the key but the engine won't turn over. The problem came out of nowhere after running fine for about 600 mi. Is it possible the shop didn't check the solenoid, and that's why it isn't engaging? Or could it be a problem with the engine itself?
