Dunno if this it or not, but I just ran into it after putting the motor back into the 245. Wouldn't crank at all, totally inert. I started checking this and that, eventually determined that there was 12V at the main cable on the starter, and 12V to the terminal when the key was in the crank position. Still nothing.

Then I noticed that there was a less prominent spade connection on the starter. Moved the wire to there, cranked perfectly.

EDIT: Ah, I should have read *all* the posts first!
