how about some details ?
Well, I used my multimeter to check the voltage at the terminal on the starter. It read 0, but when I tugged on the wire it would jump around a little. I started tracing the cable back, and as I ran my hand up the wire it stared sparking like crazy when I moved it. It turned out to be a crack in the wire cover, and it was touching where the wire came out of the body. I am suprised it didn't spark when I hooked up the battery. Anyway, a little electrical tape and it was all ready to go! Works great!
