rdorman Hi Rick First What gear didyou try and push start the car? Never use first gear, the wheels will just lock up ever time. BEFORE you do anything else MAKE SURE THE MOTOR SPINS!! put a breaker bar on the crank and spin the motor. If spins OK if not pull sparkplugs Motor my be hydrolocked. If spin is OK Try and push start in 2Gear if you have fuel and air it should fire up and run. Is this a gear reduction starter? It sounds like the soleiod on the starter went bad. Pull the starter and run 12 volts to the motor only and ground the case. You will get a spark but the motor should spin, if not the motor is bad. If the motor spins the solenoid is bad. You have have to get a whole starter. Some companys have parts to replace just that part. Good luck let us know. Chaplin is doing 2:00am feedings. He's a great dad.
Oh get back to work. Rick Lake
