Looks like I have a starter issue on my ’73 1.7. When I turn the key to the "on" position the starter engages and will not disengage.
I just had the motor out and am worried I have swapped wires some were or have burnt the solenoid when I was trying to get it started. Should I get a new starter? The ignition switch work great before. I am 95% positive I have everything hooked up right. Is there a relay? Any ideas? |

Switch could be sticking in the start position, try backing off your key a bit.
I had a new key cut and it would do this. |
