Well:

Looking for advise on what to replace first and or test first. My Daughters 1993 well maintained 240 does this funny thing once every couple of weeks. After the car sits for more than 30 min and less than an hour all we get is a click and no start. It wont turn over. You can hear the pump prime everytime. If it sits for longer say 2 hrs or over nite everything is back to normal. Filling up at the gas station no problem starts right back up. So... Should I test the starter? and if so how to? Or, replace the ignition switch? I once had a 92 240 that had an engine speed sensor that was no good at hot starting but it still would turn over.
