Hey all,

Someone here posted info about starter motor problems. 

Interestingly enough, I'm having the exact same issues.

Car is a 1600 stroker, with headers.

Starter was completely rebuilt. 

Car has 1000 miles on it since the rebuild, and the starter motor just 
died.  I had to push start it all last night, which actually wasn't a 
big deal because the thing is so darn light. 

When I turned the key, I got NOTHING.  Jumping the back of the switch 
didn't make it start either, so I know it's NOT the switch.  I've got a 
spare that was also rebuilt, so I'm going to put it in today. 

So I'm wondering if the heat from the headers is "frying" the solenoid, 
or something.  I think I might build a heat shield for the thing. 

Thoughts? 

Eddie
