I assume i can read amps with my multi-meter? I ran a jumper (although only a 12 gauge wire) from battery + to white post and it turned over but only once . Kept trying again and again but nada! I had a battery charger set on 15amps on battery during test. Think there is plenty of juice there. Ground is good as are all connections. I think my cart is harder to work on than any of my hotrods! Guess I'll put the old starter back on and see what happens? Any and all advice is welcome!

Thanks
