I have my engine and tranny out. i need to rotate the enigine so that I can unbolt the torque converter. the starter is still attached. i took out spark plugs, engine is still to hard to crank by hand at the crank pulley....

so how do I short circuit the starter to get the engine bumped over?

i connected a battery to jumper cables, put the negative on the starter body and the pos to where the positive was. solenoid only clicked, no rotation.
