So it's time to fire up the new engine (5.3) in my jeep.
I connect all the wires just right and give the solenoid 12v an just get a click.... hook up the charger and get a slow half crank before it stops.
I've checked all the connections and cleaned and brushed them down to shiny bare metal. I've tried two different batteries will full charges and doesn't seem to make a difference. Even tried a new starter and same story.
Could this be my leads? They look clean with zero corrosion so I haven't bothered to try new ones. Any other ideas? Maybe the motor needs oil in the spark plugs? I've rotated it by hand and it turns stiff just as every other motor I've tried.
