Re: Little help with a "hot starter"

My truck had the same problem. I just finally put a new starter in a couple weeks ago. I also bought a solenoid heat shield and remote starter solenoid. I haven't had time to install either yet....

Also, the starter on my truck was physically small, that may have been some of the problem too? The solenoid and nose cones were the same, but the actual starter was about 30% smaller than the new one I bought. I just bought a replacement starter for a mid 70's truck and it was much bigger. My truck is a mutt, so it probably had some small car starter or something on it?

So far, no "slow starts" even after an hour of driving.
