Car wont start...NEED HELP!
So today I turned the ignition on and the car did not start. It took me 3 attempts and finnaly the engine turned over. I came back home and turned the key a few times and everything seemed normal.
A few hours later I was leaving to go to work and the same thing happened! This time the engine did not turn over or stutter, I thought it was the battery terminal but after checking it was not. The lights come on, the dash works, and the radio even turns on I am thinking the starter?? I have not had any electrical issues or any problems with the car until today. Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions that can help me out with this problem???

If the battery is good, and the alternator seems fine, considering you say other parts power on, then logically it would be the starter.
As a side note, isn't the radio supposed to turn off when you try to start the car? I mean doesn't it for a brief second route all the power to try to turn the engine over? Or do you mean it completely shuts the radio off?

Yeah usually the radio turns off for a few seconds and turns back on but now it statys off. Thoday I tried a friends battery and same issue...so im guessing its the starter.
I have a 2Jz ge motor in my garage....does anyone know if the starter will work on a Soarer 1J?
