Put on new starter, after failer to start after work. Just Clicked!!Could feel it in the starter,but it would not ingage & turn over. afternew starter. Itdid it again after driveing it home from work, it was still hot from the road. I,m thinking about remotie starter switch or button between ingtion & starter?

 

Ouch....my eyes...


have you checked the battery? Where did you get the starter from?

 

x2 on the aftermarket starter, usually no good.....

What did the original starter do that made you want to replace it.

 

Got starter from O,Reilly,s. Lifetime warrty.

 

A remote button/switch is exactly what I had done and it starts every time now.
originally,I had an issue where every now and then (always at the most in opportune time) it would not start. (90 4runner 3vze). I replaced every fuse and relay known to the ignition system,replaced starter and even the ignition switch and it always seemed ok...then...it would happen. it wouldnt start. Always had to have it jumped. No mechanic could ever figue it out. Not even the stealership...so...I had a buddy of mine wire up a starter button under the dash.
I still use the key to the on position and then hit the button. It has never let me down since (fingers crossed).
If you do the same,by wiring up a button...be sure to wire it in conjunction with the Cold Start Injector.
if not...on cold days,it will crank forever before starting. Found this out first hand.
Good luck and happy cranking!

 

would not engage, justed clicked , but no turn over?

 

I got an after market starter from Autozone...no problems at all.
If all else fails...remote switch it. Im not promoting anything of NOT fixing the original problem,all Im saying is if all else fails. Switch it...just hide the switch!
;>)

 

Since new starter no trouble in the mornings or after work. SO Far!!

 

My yota is the same except a 2.4,22re. all stock 224.000miles .brolaw put motor in at little over 100.000. Then could not get flywheel right after crack. Igot it from my Sis, after the slip She bought it new in 1990. no commplates.

 

Keep cables with ya....Yota's are notorious for surprises :>)

 

Never had to jump it.

 

Once it hits , if it dose not flood, it fires right up!!

 

Flood? Is your rig carb'd?
