I have an 88 22re truck that has been giving me problems. I seems to intensify when its cold. You can turn the key and hold it on and nothing happens for about 7 seconds. Then it fires up. In the cold sometimes it does not work at all. When you turn and hold the key there are some clicking noises. Wait and it will turn the starter and start the truck. Put in a new battery and it still does it. Starter does not drag when starting. Any help would be apprediated.

After reading rogers page i replaced the contacts and have had no troubles since... cheep fix contacts only cost about 8.00 and took about a hour of my time Re: delayed starter reaction [Re: salvo] #853642 12/20/07 12:12 AM Joined: Oct 2007 Posts: 4 illinois C chicomilo OP Need a Spot I think I got it fixed. I cleaned some electrical connections on the starter and everything seems to be ok. Salvo what contacts are you refering to? Always helps to learn something!

I found one for about $25 a few year back at an automotive electrical shop in Florida. Contained contacts, insulating rings, and a new plunger. I should have bought it. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/ignore.gif" alt="" /> "A young man who does not have what it takes to perform military service is not likely to have what it takes to make a living." - John F.

Just search for "clicker fixer" on Ebay Motors. Good luck.
