Re: Starter Problems

[MagicGaliquogi@xxxx]

Oh My!! I finally got it going!! I ordered a new starter and also replaced 
the cable that goes from the solenoid to the starter!! She started right up 
and purrs like a kitten!! The guys at the NAPA store said the were placing 
bets on whether I would get it going or not and whether it was the starter or 
not! 

NOW the other small problem I have it this.... The vaccum wiper motor.. I 
replaced the tubing and that helped some. I think I am going to take it apart and 
clean it and see if that helps. I have plenty of vaccum so its not that. It 
acts like it wants to go but doesnt.... 
I want to clean it first before I replace the wiper motor. Those arent cheap!
