Hi all, I just got a 72 bug that doesn't run. The guy that owned it before the person I got it from replaced the starter but for some strange reason he welded the starter in place. My question is what is the wiring for this? None of the wires were connected and a buddy of mine hooked them up to what he thinks is right but when I turn the key I get nothing, no click no turn over. it has a brand new fully charged battery. Also when I went to hook up the battery I got small sparks from the negitive side,does this mean anything? I really don't what to have to grind the welds off the starter if that is not the problem. Thank you Bob
