  1. Thanks!!!!! I have been looking for this info for a week. My baby 94 LS400 , will not start. The mechanic says its not the battery or the altenator. Says the starter is going, get rid of it. I had to put abt 1500 into since I gt it . But do not want a note and I don't think there is aclassier ride out there. Dad says get rid of it. ( I borrow his car when I have issues) Dad told me to go to chiltons to get starter repair info. I did one better. Thanks so much. Hopefully he can save me 1g. Which is what I was quoted for timing , starter andsomething else that should be taken care of while we are in there. Get your buddy to test if the starter is drawing excessive amps. If you trust him, take him up on the $75. I'd even throw in a couple cases of beer and some Jack Daniels. To get an idea of what's involved, check out this link: http://www.lextreme.com/starter.html Not for the faint of heart. Otherwise, keep the number for a tow real handy. B)
  2. I believe the starter on my 94 LS needs replaced. I've seen step by step DIY in previous post but can't seem to find one now. I guess my symptoms are 1) It won't start (click). 2) it won't stay jumped. Mechanic checked the battery and the alternator, says they are both good that It is probably the starter that I should sell it before it goes because the repair is expesive because of labor. Dad agrees says winter is coming get rid of it. (it?!) But I am still in love. He loves a challenge and his daughter so he asked me to get chiltons he would try it himself to save me the grand + I've been quoted. (he is a driveway mechanic) I have had a few problems see below: now I can add the starter to the list . power steering / fuel pump/ white smoke radio/clock LCD out driver side door handle driver side window Rear emblem replaced (stolen!!!) replacement card key
