I recently purchased a 77 Royale and have been soaking up as much information as I can here on the forum. It's great to have so much experience to learn from.
My starter was making a lot of noise and found that the bracket had been welded several times. I purchased a new one from Ragusa and even more noise was made, found out that the end bushing was all but gone. A new bushing is being made and machining the armature shaft. This should be finished Monday.
Now to the fuel pump. When I hook up the battery next to the generator I can here the fuel pump turn on! I don't need a fire with fuel pumping everywhere. The owner I purchased it from said it worked fine before he welded the bracket and that may have caused a problem. I have checked the solenoid and appears to be working correctly but not sure if the wires are insatlled correctly on it. Have been unable to find a picture showing where the wires go. Any thoughts of where to look next are appreciated.
