Good Morning,We recently picked up a very nice 76 Glenbrook with 76,000 miles. The TZE is is very nice shape, refurbished in 2009 and always stored indoors. Last week the starter quit, it would only make a loud click, but not rotate to the point it started to smoke. I had it rebuilt, checked battery and cables but still burned out the rebuilt starter on the first start. The rebuilt starter worked perfectly for the first start, but there was a loud squealing sound coming from the engine/drivetrain area. I shut the motor off, had a quick look and was not able to start again. Same loud click, but I did not push the rebuilt one to the point of getting the unit hot. There is a possibility the start power is staying on and keeping the solenoid engaged. I have not confirmed this, but it is likely the problem, possibly the ignition switched or the relay/solenoid on the firewall or ???I welcome and appreciate any feedback.Thank you,
Eric & Christine Roell76 Glenbrook
