    M931A2 starting problem

    ***UPDATE*** well, I solved the problem! it was the starter but not what I was thinking was wrong with it. turns out, the starter was just kinda seized from lack of grease. simple fix, just unsimple to figure out! freed it and lubed it, and now she starts like a champ! if it wasn't for theses...

    M931A2 starting problem

    I actually thought about it. after I even called diesel mechanics and a starter specialist and they were stumped I was about to just order a new starter and solenoid because I was just getting aggravated with it. but once I cleared my mind and then looked at it again and thought about that lever...

I checked all conections on solenoid and opened it and cleaned everything to like new. I have even tried having...
