Turn the key I get nothing, it use to engage the firewall mounted relay now it wont do that at all, fuse block possibly?
I have replaced the Starter Relay on the firewall, the solenoid on the starter, put new brushes in the starter, also a new ground form battery to bottom starter mounting bolt.
I can jump the starter on the starter solenoid, but, the solenoid is extremely hot when the battery is connected, burned me darn fingers!
There is power at all ends of the starter electrical system form the batt to relay, batt to starter, relay to starter etc.
Connected a jumper wire from the batt+ to relay small terminal, relay engaged fine.
Connected a jumper wire form the batt+ to starter terminals and the starter did not engage which confuses me as I have installed new brushes etc in the starter and I can jump the starter :/ .. maybe i'm missing something here, hopefully someone can help me out.

small wire with boot goes on the s stud for starter. need to buy relay from a better part store like napa
SOURCE: starter wont engage
The problem is either the starter solinoid (located on fender near battery) or you are not getting power to the "s" terminal on the starter solinoid from the ignition switch. If you follow the positive battery cable from the battery you'll follow it to the solinoid. Remove the small wire from the terminal marked "s" on the solinoid and using a screwdriver jump from "s" terminal (not the wire) to where positive battery cable connects to solinoid. (with battery connected). If starter doesn't do anything the solinoid is bad. If starter cranks then you are not getting voltage from ignition switch through "s" terminal wire.

Even though I bought the vehicle new, there was an aftermarket security system installed. The system had a bad diode, so i removed the system and reconnected the factory wires.

There is a solinoid on the starter. It pushes the bendix in to the starter. The other thing you see is an external voltage regulator.
