so saturday i went to turn on betsy and i come to find out my starter went out. so yesterday i went out and got a used b series starter, put it on and bam she turned on. the starter was acting fine all day, started right up no problem. this morning i go to warm her up and guess what happens. yep the starter is gone, AGAIN ! is there any reason why 2 starters would go out in 2 days ? im really confused and a little frustrated so if anyone can shed some insight on what they think that would be greatly appreciated ! thanks

 

Are you sure it's not the ignition switch? Try jumping the signal wire to your positive battery terminal

 

dont know... good luck. i hope someone can help you out. Weird problem?

 

First step I would try to tap on it see if it turns over if nothing happens then check power to the starter. Since you put a used starter in there the chances are that one is bad also.

 

i will try tapping it, and if not ill check the power. thanks for the replies and ill get back to this

 

also check your ground on your engine i had the same problem i thought the starter was bad but it eventually ended up being a bad ground wire

 

Make sure you have a GOOD FULLY charged battery before u go out and spend money. It can be ur battery and not ur starter at all.

 

so i found out its not my starter because my car would turn on randomly when i would try every 15-20 mins, then sometimes it wouldnt. so im thinking it might be a bad wire, ill be checking on it soon, thanks again for the quick replies

 

yea man it has to be your ground wire then!!

 

ya kid rite above me your not getting good ground from battery check all the grounds.

 

thanks for the replies..it ended up being my ground to the battery it was loose and wasnt grounded properly ! betsy gave me a scare lol
