Please advise:
We have 12v power going to starter solenoid. When we key to start, the other side of solenoid gets about 7v of power. The car was starting slow for a day or two and the stopped. I tried to run power directly from the power terminals on the passenger firewall to the starter using a large stereo power cable, as I did not see a way to clamp as standard jumper cable on there. It was 10 degrees outside though, so my fingers and brain nearly stopped working. Any idea how I can determine that the starter is good or bad?
Jumping from the battery does not help either. Thanks for your help.
