It was suggested that I could try hooking up 2 12-volt batteries in series in order to get my stuck engine to turn over. Has anyone tried that and if so, did it work?
As long as I didn't keep the starter energized for too long, I don't think it would be damaged.
I intend to remove all fuses and have 12-volts go to the solenoid and 24-volts only go to the starter and nothing else.
I have already put a mixture of Marvel Mystery oil and a rust breaking liquid into the cylinders and let it soak for a few weeks. Didn't fill them up completely but that will be my next step if the 24-volts don't work.
Any thoughts to share? Thanks.
