In Reply to: Dead spot in starter? posted by DaninKansas on August 11, 2014 at 14:42:17:
It should be easy to spot a dead spot on the armature. A bar will be burnt and most likely some thrown solder in the band. I will add to the discussion that ordinarily a dead spot will not respond after several clicks of solenoid. Dead is dead until armature is turned to next bar. Most solenoid problems result from low voltage to the signal terminal from switch to the solenoid after you are sure of all your cables and connections of course, (actually it is a magnetic switch on the 350 as a solenoid is the type that also pulls the drive to engaged position). The easy way to test this is if it clicks, quit using the starter switch and jump directly from the battery cable at starter to the magnetic switch small terminal. If it engages starter you know you have no dead spot, rather you have low voltage through your switch & or wiring. A relay to magnetic switch is often the best solution to those type of problems. Far as rebuilding, where are they getting parts. Most likely China as original Delco parts are not to be had so if you need armature or fields, you are in trouble. I know this because I rebuilt a lot of starters and quality parts are almost nonexistent now days. A rummage through a bunch of old cores and pick the good parts would be the best but that is not an option for me anymore either.

Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
