wack the starter with a long bar or screw driver, sometimes that will get it to temporarily work. if its not the starter, it can also be the ignition... you need to check that with a test light. How to do this - put the test light on the signal wire on the starter and turn the key, if you have power to it, then its not the ignition... its the starter. hope this helps.. good luck :thumb:
