I am wondering with your starter issue, do you have a ground problem? If you are still running the electric fuel pump it could also also be affecting that whole situation. I'm pulling for you Dave! I'm in a similar situation of knocking my head against a stone wall every time I try to get the motor(s) working properly on the Goofy Cart.
Thanks George. I did check ground with a VM and it looks fine. I also added an extra ground to the solenoid just in case...no dice. I'm still running with the mechanical fuel pump at this time...thanks for watching and commenting.

shoominati23 I have always used the redline type with a metal compression washer(kind of like a small valve spring) with good success. The rubber washers provided are good for a couple months and the plastic soft mount with the orings isn't as reliable as the redline soft mount
