Hello,

I just recently purchased a 69 Galaxie coupe, with a 390 that had been sitting for 7 years. I have put a new negative battery cable and a new starter solenoid, but still don't get the motor to crank. I put the key in and I have interior lights that dim when turning the key. I also have lights, but no headlights when switch is pulled all the way out. Where do I need to turn my attention to next? Any help would be appreciated!

thanks,
Indybrad

Clean the POSITIVE wire going to the starter.

Clean the Ground strap from manifold or head to the Firewall, and make a block to frame ground also.

THEN you unplug every connection you can find and give it a shot of WD40 and plug it back in.

That should wake up your beast.
