'96 Starting problem?

Jadewombat · 11-01-2002, 03:23 PM

Hi, I have a '96 Tacoma V6 4WD that has a weird starting problem. It has been going on for about a year now, but seems to be getting worse latetly. Even with the clutch pushed all the way in it will crank real slowly or not at all. We replaced the starter this week with a new Bosch unit and it was fine for a few days, but now it does it again. The battery was tested OK, could this be the ignition switch or clutch switch? Is this a common problem? Anything else we are missing? Thanks in advance.

I don't think its common. Check the cables for corossion on both ends. Sorry I can't be more helpful.
