The Ford Barn - View Single Post

I've had my starter stuck only a couple times in 40 years and have been able to get it unstuck with minimal difficulty. I finally have given up on it this time. My old lady legs just don't have the strength to rock the car back and forth. I've searched the barn and watched a video and didn't find a remedy I haven't tried. I even tried using my truck as my legs and gently pulled it backwards in 3rd gear. I had a friend come over and help thinking 4 legs might get it rocking enough to do the job. It didn't.

Any ideas?
