[T2] Sat and the bus in Baltimore

While cranking, a voltmeter on the + of the coil or what feeds the 
double relay needs a minimum voltage- was it 9?  Anyway, this can be 
ruled out by JUMPING the bus from a running car.  Have you done that, Bob?

In a previous episode (*), my bus cranked beautifully, but would
not start via cranking though it would roll start in a flash.
Starter, on relay and hence first in circuit, evidently did not
leave enough juice for other functions.  After replacing relay and
having starter serviced, the bus cranked exactly as it had before
but now it started.

Of course, at 30+ years old every bus has become unique.
