Starter Problems


Recently I went to see my truck ( its a 154 miles north of here in a town called Stonyford which is in the middle of nowhere) on the 28th of December. My dad and I had driven up for the second time to see the truck. Last time we had gotten it to start and went for a quick 5 minute drive. This time we came more prepared. We had new battery, new fan belt, engine oil, transmission oil, and our trusty toolbox. We expected to drop in the new battery and be off to get some new tires. But Lo and behold it did nothing. The starter motor which we had trouble with previously was dead, it refused to crank and when it did it was pitiful. We were very disappointed and decided to take the starter off. We took the starter off messed with it and reattached it and hoped for the best. It was like magic we tried it and prayed and it started we soon had it out for a drive and brought it in. Sadly we couldn't start it again. So we went to Napa Auto parts and got a new starter hope to try it out this weekend.
