Reply to "Starting Problem"

You say that the starter has been replaced with a DB electrical unit. Do you still have the original solenoid mounted on the firewall? If so, then that may be dodgy or the jumper from that to the DB may be loose.

When replacing the Ford starter with one like the DB, that has an internal solenoid, there is a small gauge jumper that is connected to the firewall mounted solenoid to the starter mounted solenoid. That small gauge wire might be the problem. The jumper might also be very short in length at the starter itself, connecting the big wire to the small terminal.
