okay.... picked up a new starter today and changed it... first off gotta say it was a PITA anyways....

i went from clicking when trying to start to now the starter stays engaged about 5-10 seconds after you release the key... it didnt do this that i noticed with the old starter, but with the new one it turns 10 times quicker and fires up quicker the key seems to have a little play in it when in the run position... im almost positive of this answer to....... bad ignition switch?

 

I gurantee you that it is your ignition switch. i had a very similar problem with mine and it was pretty easy to install. Much easier than a starter.

 

well i put the starter in last night, as far as the ignition switch its like 20 bucks and maybe 10 mins...

 

turns out it was the starter...
