Sometimes won't start...
My '93 has recently (apart from its other problems - AC, right front vibration, clutch hanging up, etc - but it was free) taken to not turning over at all sometimes. I turn the key and get nothing, the engine doesn't turn over at all.
If I put it in neutral, and roll a bit, it will then turn over. I'm thinking something like a position sensor is bad, but I haven't really had time to check it out, and posting here is probably faster and easier anyway. If I jump the starter solenoid at the terminals on its front, it fires right up. Ideas?
(As for the other issues - vibration, needs an alignment and possibly front end work...AC, I know the evaporator coil is bad, just have to replace it with the one I got...clutch, probably holding air, doesn't hang up all the time, needs to be re-bled...not counting replacing the center console lid since my darling daughter stepped on it and cracked it...)
Thanks,
David
