Okay, one day no start. I replaced the starter. No start, but there is a broken ground strap from bell housing. I have no idea to where it goes. Also, if I run a wire from my r terminal and ground it to the starter housing bolt, not mounting bolt, the housing bolt it cranks over. Did not further crank to see if it would actually run.

Hi,

When you say, "r terminal" what are you referring to? Also, you indicated a ground strap broken from the bell housing. Do you mean it is broken away from the bell housing or is it attached to the bell housing and the opposite end is detached?

Let me know. Also, I need to know what you meant by the r terminal.

Take care,

Joe
