Hey there....lately, every so often, I turn the key and the lights go on, but the engine doesn't start, or even budge (the starter isn't moving). After a random number of repetitions turning the key, the car starts (it's always less than 10 tries).
Everything else is perfectly fine. What gives? |

Sounds like a bad ground to me. Or, your starter is on it's way out. Check your grounds on the starter, block, frame, and neg battery post. Also, check all of your power leads as well. Sometimes that nut on the starter works its way off.
