starter issues
hey guys! I have a 2010 F250 V10 4x4. about every 3-4 times when you start the truck....it seems as though the starter "sticks". If I catch it and shut it off and then turn the key right back it fires up and does not stick. Its as if the gear is staying kicked out into the flywheel. Are we thinking the starter itself? I'm thinking starter...but looking for input before I crawl under it.
thanks in advance

Well, considering I just went through this with mine, more than likely it's the solenoid sticking, it probably has rust buildup inside not allowing it to slip back after starting. Unfortunately for me, I didn't realize the starter was making the racket until I climbed out of the truck, but by that time, I had toasted the starter. I wouldn't take a chance, it could eat the ring gear up pretty quickly if it stays engaged.
