1990 740 turbo

posted by  someone claiming to be chris on  Sun Mar 8 17:46 CST 2015 [RELATED]

I am still having the same problem after changing out my starter.

I have taken the battery to two different parts stores and they both tell me it checks out fine.

Today I drove it 5 miles to a store and when I went to restart it wouldn't. I got a guy to jump it and it started right up.

Drove back home and turned it off and back on to see if it would start and it did.

I also have put in a new ignition switch.

What do you guys would think would be the next step? I was thinking maybe trace all the grounds and disconnect clean them regarding the battery.

The car seems to run fine when I am driving and Im not getting any smoke out of the tail pipe.

Again the problem is that after a drive (seems to be getting more frequent) and I turn car off it won't restart without a jump and it doesn't turn over.
