So, i got the OK to drive the truck from the testing place now in sweden, yay!
ofcourse more problems appear...
The starter has always worked porfect while it was in the garage, always cranked the engine.
Now, when the truck has been running some the starter solenoid wont engage some times.. I can drive it for 15 minutes, turn it off and then to restart it in 5 minutes and the starter is completley dead. i can try to start it 20 times and nothing, then on the 21st time it starts.
Ive been reading up on the delco starters and people seems to be experiencing alot of problems with hot starters not being able to move the solenoid.
I found this site,
Chevrolet No Start Fix - Chevy High Performance
anyone ever had to modify their starter like that to avoid it from not engaging when hot?
Maybe i can manifacture a heatshield around it...
or is my starter slowly dieing on me and should be replaced ?
pain in the butt to just sit in the truck waiting for some time to pass trying to start the truck just hearing clicks from a 2nd solenoid i have in the engine bay.
starter has brand new cables and volts was about 24.5 Volts on the main power connector to the starter.
Thank you all for great reading
