Re: IML: 67 won't turn over with good battery

["Dan" <sunup@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The last time I tried to start it the cranking slowed gradually until it 
wouldn't turn over at all. I assumed the battery went dead and let it sit 
for a few months. But now I'm told by NAPA that that is how a bad starter 
will also act. I was told a simple way to troubleshoot it is to cross a 
screwdriver in the large and small nuts on the starter where the positive 
lead come in. If it cranks it rules out a bad starter.

I'd like confirmation this is safe and will not harm the electrical system.

Thanks
