Is it cranking over fine and just not starting or doesn't it crank? Can you hear the fuel pump running? Don't really know whats going on. Haha. Just throwing some quetions out.

Good morning Cory and Troy.

Wiring issues are pretty common when things warm up. Then go away once cooled down. I know that doesn't narrow a search much.

Good morning Jay!

So what your saying is Cory should inspect every single wire in the car and make sure they are all good........

It can't decide whether sun should be out today or it should rain. Keeps changing back and forth today.

Good evening Jay! That sounds tasty. We went into to the little town where Beth has her salon for a community supper. Was pretty good.

Good morning fellas!

Ok, so a little more info might be good. Everything comes on as it should. It's like there is no power to starter at all. Gonna have to check it when I get home and its warmed up good. Maybe starter, relay?

Good morning Cory!

Yeah that helps a little. Haha. Yeah could be starter relay or the starter solenoid on the starter since it would get plenty hot down there after the motor is warmed up. Have to see where you have voltage going too. Could always have Mason try and start it and you tap on the starter with something.
