How does a starter die? 140-160 1973

If you can remove and disassemble the solenoid and clean its internal
contacts you'll probably solve the problem. Sounds like it is engaging
but not making good enough contact to run the motor. (but other things
have similar symptoms, as Bob points out.)
If necessary I can give further instructions tomorrow.
