thanks for the quick reply. I have not checked the ground to the bell housing but will do so tonight and clean the connection with brake cleaner. All of the other connections were assembled within the past 3 days, I may also loosen all of the other cable connections and clean them. I got the 12 volt starter back from the shop 6 days ago,after a rebuild with a new solenoid and brushes. I've never tested a starter/battery under load but will do so tonight. should I transfer over to a 100 amp alternator instead of the generator?
