The Ford Barn - View Single Post - would 2/0 AWG wire from West Marine be suitable for a 1941 Ford 6v system

It's probably the starter but just in case I would perform a "voltage drop" test on every cable and component in the system just to make sure you're not losing voltage somewhere in the circuit. It's really an easy test to perform. It keeps you from replacing perfectly good parts. There are a bunch of voltage drop tests you can watch on YouTube.
