Answer: It may be that the cables to the two terminal posts of the battery do not make good connections. The contacts of the starting switch or the connections of the cables leading to it, may not be tight and clean. The brushes of the starting moter may not make £00d contacts or the cable connec- tions to the motor may be loose. The bearings of the starting motor may be dry or so worn that the armature strikes the pole-pleces. It might be a good idea, if you do not find the trouble elsewhere, to have the motor removed and tested.
