Stop in for a cup of coffee

Could do that, but then I'd have wires going 2 directions off the starter. Now it runs to side with the other cable and then to the relay. Not too concerned either way right now. Just want to get it running.

Yeh, and I just opened the cover. The contacts look pretty crappy.. Even if I get the kit for that, it doesn't include the other lead. This just keeps getting stupider. :BangHead: Really wishing I would have just bought a new chinesium starter.
Think I figured out the problem! Apparently I had not completed the required prerequisite amount of cursing needed to install a part on an old car. Now that I got that out of the way, it looks like it will work. LOL

Contacts are considerably worn. But with a little cleanup, I think they have far more starts left in them than I will require. :thumbsup: As for the connector...I did get the right one. Seems there was some dirt in it and/or the catch was already broken -stopping it from going on. I figured out how to work the broken catch piece, and at the moment, can't find the red lock tab... But it makes good contact with the pin. So, this thing will function.
