'84 wagon, NA automatic, 392k on the clock but as I drove around with an inop odometer for 1 1/2 years it could be well over 400k. by now I'm ready to go nuts. The starter is a sometimes thing. I've tried replacing the battery cables. I've made sure the connections are clean and tight. I had the starter reman'd by a reputable shop. I've replaced the starter switch. The master fuse is clean and dry and properly connected. Using a remote starter switch produces the same result. The integrity of the switch wires is good. The battery is fully charged and strong. When I try to start it sometimes nothing happens. No clonk, no humming, no rattling - nothing. When it does engage it is strong and turns the motor well. WTF, any ideas?
