STARTER MOTOR TEST
1.Connect clamps to battery posts and do the basic battery test. In addition, note the exact voltage with the load test on. If voltage continues to fall after 10 seconds, this test cannot be preformed.
2.Apply the voltage obtained above to starter test table on the scale plate. In this case, please use the next higher minimum cranking volts for the engine of less than 200 CID. For example, if load voltage is 11.00, use 10.2 for minimum cranking voltage.

3.Disable the ignition system without starting, crank the engine and note the voltage.
4.If cranking voltage of Step 3 is below the minimum cranking voltage in starter test table, the starter current draw is excessive. If starter cranks slowly, check for high resistance or poor connections.
