We have not but as said we can push start the car. Drove it 300 miles from Florida to Georgia and now working on it in my garage. Known good starter is installed. When driving it the only light on the dash is the Brake Lining.

What would the stomp test give me for no crank?

Be sure to check for good engine ground.

Will check it...

Will check it...

*edit*

Took the starter on the car and the bendix pops out but the starter does not turn. Took the used starter and same thing. AutoZone tested both for us. Bought a new starter :(


Wish us luck.

Luck was wished :)

Both starters were dead. We are rolling!
