Re: IML: 1961 starter

[randalpark@xxxxxxx]

The starter for a '61 isn't easy to find. That was the last year before 
the one that IS easy to find, '62 onward. You may have to get yours 
rebuilt, or buy an extra and have it rebuilt. You may be able to 
purchase a good used one from Imperial Heaven. Contact information is 
listed on the OIC web site. I have done lots of business with them and 
have been very satisfied.

Good luck!

Subject: IML: 1961 starter

yesterday my car wouldn't start just clicked. I first did all the 
normal stuff checked wires connection etc. Lights did not dim 
when cranking the moter  or did the starter engage when I jumped it at 
the regulator. So i pulled the starter . The solenoid sits directly on 
top. As I took the cap off the end of the starter I noticed the wire 
going the post,that's connected to the solenoid was broken  Also this 
thick piece of copper was also broken I assume that that normally would 
be connected to the same area as the broken wire. So I hooked it back 
up that way but got nothing not even a click . So I wonder does that 
thick piece of copper is not suppose took connect there?  I tryed 
calling around to napa thinking that it wouldn't be hard to get a new 
starter and solenoid. But I was wrong nobody has one  where i live and 
they weren't even sure they could order me one. so my question is where 
can i get one fast cause its my only transportation right now ?
