I am not good with electricity. How can I tell if I have low voltage and high amperage? The starter sounds powerful when I push the rod down. Battery measures 12.99v

Can't tell if I have copper, brass or bronze contact strip.

Tom, The grommet is tight and I have had to grease it - several times. Maybe I should open it up. The angle is good for the rod to return.
