 Sometimes my J-H won't start. I get my goggles, gloves, special driving slippers and hat on, turn the key and....

....nothing.

No click, no starter motor, no go. The lights dim and the battery tests fine.

It seems that if I can 'nudge' the starter by moving the car a bit it will start. Push start works every time but hills are not always convenient.

Sounds like starter motor or starter solenoid. Is there any way to diagnose either or should I just give Delta a call and get a new starter/solenoid combo?

Any advice is appreciated.
