Repair a starter solenoid 200 1991

posted by  someone claiming to be benzo on  Sat Jan 29 10:10 CST 2011 [RELATED]

Art:
The soleniod just clicks, I have to tap it with a hammer to get the starter going. Once the car has started once it's fine but if it sits to get cold it's trouble. Someone said it's the solenoid going bad so I replaced the starter and the car starts just fine now. If it could be something else I'd be happy to hear about it.
Maybe I could take some time to go to the junkyard, not to many 240/740/940 around here though. I think it's more a lack of energy, as you said it's a foot of snow in the driveway and I've done enough car repairs in zero degrees this winter. I'll call around to some shops today to see what I can get.

Have a good day,

John
