They're on the wall by the batteries. Along with the battery accessory stuff. They're generic lengths, sold by inches. So know how long you need it to be.
It means that you need a new cable. An open wire ohm test, should be infinity, and is represented by all zeros.
Doesn't sound like much resistance. But a cable with noticeable corrosion, could easily cause the problem that you've been having.
So your starter works like an automotive type? Mine is a clutch type, meaning that the flywheel will spin freely in one direction and lock up in the other. So I don't have a gear that kicks out to contact the flywheel, it's always meshed with the flywheel.
So whatever acts as a bendix with your starter sounds like it may not be functioning properly.
That's a good idea and I believe have a Tester, I'll dig it out. I didn't think about that, I did put a new coil and spark plug on it but beyond getting a spark never checked for it breaking down.
Thank you Travis, I'll post how I do.
