    Truck laid up 6 months

    I was wondering if there are any wrench heads out there
    I have a truck problem & I need this truck back working
    It started having issues in winter ( my Ford econoline 4.2 V-6)
    Sluggish start and nasty sounding starter
    Then dead of winter stopped starting just clicking
    Battery was bad so in went a new battery – No Help
    Tested old starter and yes it was bad
    Put in new starter and still just clicking ??
    I just don't see a wire problem
    I can test with a meter to see if I am getting proper volts (tomorrow)
    I will tell you - this motor ran sweet smooth had power
    I don't think it is seized it ran perfect till the clicking issue
    The auto parts wants me to get a relay solenoid @ $15 they say it could be that
    It could be something simple but what ?
