I have seen batteries do exactly this. If any of the internal connections between cells separates it can still pass a few electrons for your voltmeter to register voltage, but it is incapable of flowing enough current to even click the solenoid. Even with two batteries in series it still effectively opens the circuit because the current has to pass through every cell, cable, connector, terminal, etc. A break, or a high resistance at any one point results in failure. This is why I asked you to check each component separately, and it looks like you may have found the culprit.

Well Coke just got a chance to go out to check the batteries. Well battery 1 which said 11.7 volts was bone dry. Battery 2 which said 12.4 looked like the acid was just at the top of the fins. I dont know why something so easy just blew right over my head. Guess to many irons in the fire on that one. Thanks for reminding me

Yup, it's almost always something basic. I have earned a living with voltmeters, etc. and while they never tell a lie, they don't always tell the whole truth. Let us know when you get 'er fired up!

Well I wanna thank everyone that have me suggestions to het my ol girl running. It came down to a battery that was empty but still showing voltage. She fired right up in bout to turns of the engine. Let her sit and run for bout 5 minutes then went to rasing the bucket as soon I started lowering it had a hydraulic hoses blow. Just my luck. Have to get one made when I get back from my trip up north. Again thank y'all for being so helpful

It could be the starter itself. If you’ve checked connections and they’re good, try replacing the starter. If that doesn’t work, check the ignition switch or the relay next.

Check your charging rate. Could be high and boiling the battery dry...
