[ihc] Intermittent Starter



Well Its sounds like a problem i had a few months back...  If you 
problem  is the same as mine .. its not the starter  (although if goes 
on long enough will burn out the started i did twice)

Your problems sounds like the starter switch.. a $5 part that mounts 
under the steering column.. and regulars the voltage that is sent to the 
starter when you turn the key.  If enough voltage is not sent to the 
starter it will never start.

  This at least was my problem of intermittent starting and no starting 
after car was warmed up sometimes for mins sometimes for hours !!!!
