IML - Need help with starter/motor turning over

[KerryPinkerton <pinkertonk@xxxxxxxxx>]

Wayne, I don't know if this will help or not but my 50
has the same problem, ie the starter clicks but won't
crank the motor.  If I keep turning the key, it will
eventually click and then start.  An old Chrysler dude
told me it is a very easy fix.  Apparently the starter
solenoid ( on top of the starter) is just a plunger. 
The end of the plunger gets rusty and does not conduct
the current.  According to him, all one has to do is
remove the solenoid and sand the end a little.  I
haven't done this yet on mine.  Hope this helps.

Have you started on your brakes yet?
