my starter took its last breath today...
I have been having the click thing for about 3 or 4 weeks and havn't had time to deal with it. This mourning I go to crank it and it stumbles as I start it up (started...died..and then fired). When doing so it started making this horrible sound. I turned the ignition off but the motor continued to run, but started making even a worse sound than before. I then turned the key back on and backed out of the garage. At this point I am starting to freak out a little because I smell burning. I decide to drive it to a shop about 2 miles down the road. When I get there I hustle in and tell them whats happening and they run out with a wrench to disconnect the battery, but it dies on its own....
Mechanic said it was hung up and would probably need to be replaced. Anybody else ever have something like this to happen? This is really the first problem I have ever had with the 4runner. Its a 99 limited with 115K.
