This is weird but I previously thought I had a starter problem after Hershey. I stalled it while entering a parking lot on the way home and it would not start. I caught it in gear and continued home. I tried starting upon arrival, nada. Took the starter off and tested GOOD. Car starts! Went for a ride today and when we got home I thought "let me see it if starts". It didn't! Weird. About an hour later it started okay. Any thoughts on a fix???
Thanks Keoni914 |

QUOTE(Keoni914 @ May 25 2009, 04:13 PM)  Any thoughts on a fix??? Get a new starter. It'll only get worse from here. Some will suggest to install a "hot start" relay but that's just a band aid for a failing starter. I went to a high torque mini starter and never looked back ...
