Replacing original starter with smaller Dakota starter. First issue was the positive stud contacting the block. I had a really pretty spark shower for a couple of seconds. S, I remove Dakota starter and cut down the stud so that it will not touch the block. I say to myself "I should really try this before going through the hassle of installing it. I get it all wired up, but no dice, nothing....just a click when turning the key. I try jumping the solenoid with a screwdriver, nothing there either. If it was a cooked fusible link, would I even get the click when turning the key ?
