69 starting problem
Working on a 69 350 auto. I'm having trouble getting the starter to engage. Sometimes the starter engages half way & clicks, then when you hit the key again there may be no power in the car at all. I've replaced both ground wires & cleaned everything. The battery checks good, the starter checks good. When I remove the positve cable from the starter and check it I get 12 volts. If I take jumpers and go directly from the battery to the starter it will turn over, I do this with the pos cable removed at both ends. Neutral safety? what are your thoughts?
