Hold it against the gear the solenoid should be able to push the gear and move the wood and fully engauge. Chances are you have to starters that were rebuilt in the same place. I have had nothing but problems with Napa starters. I could recommend a great rebuilder if you don't mind the drive to Kitchener. It might be a bendix drive i am not sure about 2g's 1g's use a solenoid.
