95 Bluebird model Q RE 5.9 Cummins
Replaced Starter on this 1995 Bluebird with a 5.9 Cummins Rear Engine Transit Bus. Turn the key to start and get a click from the Solenoid in electrical panel. Bus was starting normally. The only way to start it for a few days was to jump the starter. I did this with the old starter. I had a fuel leak so I went to replace the fuel line and by mistake I cut the oil line. After I repaired both fuel and oil lines. I tried to start it by jumping the starter. This time just clicks. So I replaced the old starter and also replaced the solenoid in the Electrical panel. But still no start same clicking when jumping the starter from underneath the bus. I also have 3 new batteries plenty of juice. I turned the flywheel with a Socket a couple rounds. Crawled back under the bus and jumped the starter and this time I get a slow movement of the starter trying to turn the flywheel for about 2-3 seconds then nothing. Did this a couple of times with same results. Still no go. I’m hopping someone here may know more about this phenomenon.
Thank you
Walter
