Checked it already, it ain't the wire to the starter. Did my oil pan gasket yesterday. You have to remove the starter. Wire was good, had good connection. Gotta get it to act up more often so I can check it. Everything leads to the switch though.

Same here. When I replaced the starter a couple of months ago I went through all of the wiring to the starter. It's all good, as far as I can tell, good, clean connections, no broken/frayed wires, etc. I had been thinking that it could be the ignition switch. I'm thinking that I'll go ahead and replace it. It doesn' seem that hard. It may have to wait until next month, though. Granny and I have a little vacation planned. Were going to take a cruise to Alaska <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> ... So ... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />

Need a Spot
I have that problem with mine. I have to tap the shifter back a bit and then it will turn over. Some times when it won't turn over, I have to shift it in and out of park to reverse and back a few times.

Then your's is the switch in the shifter. Take it out and clean or replace it.

Mystery solved!!!

Started playing with the shifter and lo and behold ... neutral safety switch. I'll pull it out, clean it up and I bet it works just like it should. Thanks <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />
