I think I have a problem with my starter. When I turn the key I only get
a click, as if the battery is low. This happens hot or cold and not
every time. Most times I can hit the boost switch and it will turn over.
But not always. When this does not work I lift the hatch and tap on the
starter with the handle of a hammer or screw driver. This seems to work
every time. But it is a real pain when the engine is hot. The starter is
not that old. It was a rebuild when I bought it. Could it be the
solenoid? Most all the wires are new and all are tight. Good ground to
the block of the engine. Is there something I could do, short of
removing it? That sucker is heavy. I think that was a stupid question.
I am sure it has to come out. Maybe have it rebuilt?
