intermittent NO start condition
ok here goes 88 formula, LO3
completely no set conditions to cause it does it hot and cold
turn key i get nothing no click no crank notta......all power accesories work just fine,
if i throw jumper cables at it it will fire up no problem........
so far i have
checked all connections both starter and battery,
done it with 2 different batteries so i dont think its just a weak battery
when it does start the starter seems sorta loud also......
so im thinking starter needs replacing, good thing i kept the one from when my 84 was automatic it should work no problem right?
sucks cuz its 90 degrees NO shade in my work space and im guessing that the exhaust has to come off since it is the big huge starter
