She won't start up

My ex-military 110 was running well, then I shipped her to the states and now she tries to start but never turns over. I am giving her 30sec in choke to warm up the plugs. I suspected the battery, but volts are strong. I tried with a jump, same results. I would love any help trying to trouble shoot this.

I think someone might have tried to start her up cold. Would trying to start her cold, without giving the heating plugs an opportunity, cause damage after a few attempts? If so, where should I look.

Have you bled the fuel system properly?

why would that stop it turning over?

has it got power to the starter motor and the solenoid?

Yes, sir.
But I am not sure how many volts I should be seeing.

I read it as trying to start, but not firing up

Sticking solenoid or jammed ring gear? There isn't much info in your post, does it spin over slowly or just clunk??

Here is a recording of what she sounds like when I try to start her.

sounds like solenoid not working properly, might be starter dog loose on the shaft or such

Try whacking it with a hammer, sometimes works on stuck starter motors.

Although seriously, are you able to tow start it?

It's the dog clutch not engaging with the ring gear. Get a refurbed starter motor £84.

Try connecti g a jump lead from engine to battery negative. That will check the earth.

Thank you everyone for all the help! (especially The Mad Hat Man)
I was able to isolate the problem as a bad ground. When I grounded the starter directly to the negative terminal on the battery with the jumper cable, she would start right up. I went back and re-cleaned all the grounds. She is now starting like a champ.
Thank you again!
