- Hi. I'm trying to test the starter motor to see if it's working or if it's something else that's causing my MGB not to crank. I've removed the start motor and solenoid (M418G Pre-Engaged) and want to

- There will be a drop of voltage available to the solenoid when the starter is cranking. Therefore the procedure suggests 10v to make sure that the solenoid will still work with a reduced voltage. If

- Perhaps the 10 volts is the drop expected on a full load test on the car. In other words, under full load starting the car the voltage will normally drop to about 10 volts. This information is due t

- The test is a good representation of the voltages encountered on load, but since the motor is off load it is hardly a full test, so I don't really see why they bother. Using 12v on both will not do a

- A "growler" test that is done on generators involves removing the armature and placing it on a special device. It is used to detect open or short circuited windings in the armature. Each winding is c
