RD's words: I'd forgotten the ATF trick.... [ATF acts like WD40 in this application, only better (for thisjob) and cheaper. You can fire a heap down there with no fear of harm. ]
I alos forgot to tell you to put a socket on the crank-bolt bolt before trying. It'll need to be treated with care, and you are about to give your starter its hardest job in years.... No point frying it eh?
If an auto, sticking solenoids is a worry, a major issue with these cars, and as RD says: as much, or more hassle than engine woes.
Change fluid with a pressure-bleeder, only I can't recommend any particular one. All junk, none seem to last, I'm on my fourth. Gunson's Eezi-bleed last 2-3 bleeds if you're lucky - (I've had two of those). I feel another lovelorn thread coming on... 'pressure bleeders I have known'
Have fun.
