Chevy 267 starter replacement
I'm a newby and I'm stuck. I have a '52 F1 with a 1980-ish Chevy 267 small block and Chevy transmission. The starter was clicking 20 or 30 times before the engine would fire up. I replaced the battery which did not help.
So, I bought a replacement starter. Advance Auto parts said I needed a Tough1one P3502S, so I put that in.
The wiring is the problem. I wired it the same as the old one: On the solenoid: battery cable and a heavy gauge red wire and a lighter gauge black wire to the big main terminal, no wires to the 2 small terminals below the main. Then a small black wire the back of the starter where there is 1 small terminal.
Nothing happens when I turn the key. I tried moving wires on the solenoid to several combinations on the three posts, always leaving the battery cable on the large post. Nothing worked.
Anybody know what to do? Now I'm not sure if this even the right starter.
Thanks in advance.
