My celica sometimes does not start on a key turn, starts ok after a delay. Normally, it is attributed to the starter contacts.
But sometimes the starter engages and turns, and then dies. Restart works. Battery good, no other issues. What else to blame in this case? Thanks! |

Perhaps stupid/obvious/unnecessary, but corrosion on the battery terminals?

I replace the battery a couple times while this happening.
