Cuong Nguyen Posted June 29, 2019 Share Posted June 29, 2019 (edited) Lately, I have been having this random no start issues. I turn the key to start and do not get any clicking or anything. Lights do not dim. Nothing. Then after a few tries after a wait it turns over like nothing happened. Any ideas as to what all I need to check first before looking for a replacement starter? Alternator tested good and same with battery. 93 Automatic. Edited June 29, 2019 by Cuong Nguyen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Reverse Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 (edited) Probably your ignition switch giving out. When I removed mine to install the push button ignition system I found mine was actually trying to come apart. The contact plate and housing had a lot of movement between them. I think that might have been the reason I was having starter issues years ago that had me come up with my "starter relay fix" I had posted so many years ago on the AC forum we used to hang out on. Did you ever do the relay mod? Edited July 3, 2019 by Mr_Reverse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuong Nguyen Posted July 4, 2019 Author Share Posted July 4, 2019 Nope. Never did the relay mod as I did not have issues with starting back then. I may just pull the starter out and take it apart to inspect and clean. I switched back over to a remote oil filter so it's a possibility with the oil spills gunking it up.

Mr_Reverse Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 I don't have oil issues on mine anymore since I managed to get the oil pressure sender to stop leaking. I wound up installing a VG33 when I broke the original engine many years ago. So I now have the tiny filter at the left front instead of over the starter.
