Finally got to take a look at car. I cleaned cables at battery. Then when I got to the starter connection I noticed that the post that the positive calbles go to was loose. So I remvoed cables and and tighten post. I thought it was snug and I said to myself let me give it a half more turn for good measure then I heard a crack. Got everything back togther cleaned and vasilined. Car would not start. Same problem as before no turn over. So I dumped a galon of cold water on starter (because I thought the hot cycle may be effecting it). Still same no turn. Then I went out for 2 hour walk to get my daughter from preschool and to the part store. Came back still no start so I am thinking that's good. It's probably that starter connection and I have a new (reman) in my possession. I have done that job before so I should be able to do it again. I write back when I know for certain that was the problem.
