You can hook you volt meter to the starter and crank the engine, volts should stay above 10 even if you not boasting, provided the battery is good. either the wires doing to the starter are not carrying the amperage or the starter is worn and is demanding excessive amps. Sounds like your duo for a starter rebuild to me. If you can get a the crankshaft, most engines have a bolt holding the front balancer on and you can put a socket on this to determine the engine is still turnable.

Not that they can't hydrolock if rain or some other liquid gets above the piston. I doubt the engine is fluid locked, diesels only pump small quantity every revolution and don't “flood” like gas engines. Often breakers get weak as they get old and won't carry their rated amps. You either need to change your top circuit breaker or take a amp meter and see if the circuit is being over loaded. the starter looks even worse.Īs one of the other members says “if it was done the easy way, it wasn't by me” Did anyone ever change a battery? It looks like a pain in the ass. Does anyone else have that problem when it stalls? On top of everything the damn pump to lift the cab doesn't work. Only thing i think of it is flooded in the cylinders when i stall it and it make it hard for engine to turn over. If i let it sit for 5-10 minutes it will start. Like if i stall the engine i can't get it started right away starter will click. I've alway had problems with the starter. Maybe engine is fluid locked? I felt the starter and it was hot even after sitting for a few hours. I jumped it with a car and it did nothing. It stalled out and now either battery or starter is fried because the started won't turn fast enough to start engine.

The top circuit breaker keeps popping and everything dies immediately. There was some water in filter.I wonder if the water could be doing it? If it is why would it start back up ?It still does the same thing but now its new and improved. Why the hell did they make something that should have been one piece two pieces and held together with 2 bullshit bolts. The rear door fell off and i backed over it.
