Hi guys! I have not read through the other comments yet, so this may very well be a reiteration of what others have said. I'm certainly not going to come in here and bash you guys for the work you're attempting to do, because we all have to start somewhere! A few things come to mind. First off, you really need a volt meter. Even a basic cheapy from either hobo freight, or walmart will do, it doesn't have to be top notch, but this will allow you to check power in various key places. Really thinking you don't actually have a starter issue, though it's possible, it sounds like more of a power issue. I'd recharge that battery fully, and use volt meter to verify that you have at least 12 volts, preferably closer to 13, at the battery itself. Next, take a good look at all your main connection points. Pay particular attention to where the ground cable runs to either the engine block, the frame, the body, or all of the above. A faulty ground will often cause a slow turning starter. An easy way to tell if a connection is offering way too much resistance, is to see if the connection gets extremely hot when trying to engage the starter. I knew the second you turned the engine over without the plugs in it, that it was unlikely to spin fast enough to start. Additionally, the small wire that plugs into the starter sollonoid (there may be 2, if that's a 4 pole system, but the one you're looking for is the one that goes to the pole usually marked I, on the unit itself. That wire provides power from the ignition switch when starting. Another trick is, I'm assuming that truck is an automatic, if so, try putting the truck in neutral, to see if the starter engages with the key. If it does, you may have a minor issue with the neutral safety switch. That's adjustable, but they have also been known to fail. Next, before replacing the starter, check the wire connection at the starter itself, it very well may be loose or corroded. I think you're on the right track, and I think some simple troubleshooting will show you where the issues are! I'll be watching for the next video to see what happens. PS: if that's been sitting a long time, you may want to remove the plugs, and use a bit of marvel mystery oil to shoot down each cylinder just to lubricate everything.. You may have done this in part 1 trying to get the engine unstuck, I didn't watch that one. In short, unless this sucker has a major issue, I don't think you're far off of getting it running!
It seems like you battery is dead. If you bring a better battery it should turn over a lot faster. Also check your battery connections to see if it’s loose. Your definitely close to starting it
Get a good hot battery on there and see what she does. Crank it with the key after thr new battery. Maybe spray some starting fluid into the intake to see if you have spark and if she'll fire. If it still cranks shitty with a good battery, id throw a starter on it and go from there.

I’d answer yes before even watching. It’s the goat.
37 years old here. 15:08 had me dying. I still do the same thing!
What a victory this is... So satisfying to see it start and turnover.
Great to see these old trucks rescued from the crusher...
Crawl underneath, push the teeth of flywheel using a crowbar. That might help

Also make sure its in Neutral or in Park
Not enough juice in the jumper pack too...
Skip the Solenoid. Hotwire the starter with positive..
Needs way more cranking power battery jumper cables would probably start right up
I saw your interior light was dim during the first video. Charge that battery overnight and try it again.
Get a can of brake cleaner and spray it into the air intake and see if it will start
no need to jump the new solenoid, just use the key now to start it, starter is fine, battery is very weak, needs new battery to,lol good work
Great video!
Thanks!
Get a new battery. You may also need a new starter.
why you spraying the pullys with liqud wrench lol i think you got a lottttt of learning to do before your making any videos
I can see debris in intake hole.. please clean that before you do anything man
Get a new battery
Need to charge the
Wow it spins.. By the sound of it it looks like timing chain is broke...
Battery is bad
Uh... wow. Not mentionable. I wouldn't show this to my 5 yr old grandson because he's way smarter than this nonsense.
no need to be rude, these kids are learning, show some respect... showing your true colors towards others i see.
Turn colors? LOL oh please expand on that!

Keep your thoughts to yourself! He is doing a fine job trying to start it up! Go worry about your own life!
