hmmmm well today i mangaged to get out there and get a bit of work done on it.. flushed the rad, oil change , new oil filter, air filter .....plugs and wires.

all was said and done and i went to fire it up and nothing... well somehting just not what i want... SHE WONT START??

now i know everyones gonna jump all over the fact that i changed the plug wires and messed something up .... it did this once or twice befor but then i turned the key again and it fired right up.... no such luck this time.

i get a really loud clicking comming from the passenger side engine compartment.... had someone turn they key a few times and i felt around a bit..... i belive its the starter relay on the fender by the battery????

anyway the "relay" sorta vibrates as well as starter....

not a mechancic here by anymeans but to me the relay "clicks" and temperaraly send power to the starter were then the solinoid trys to engage but cant cause the relay turns on and off repeatedly!?!?!?


anyone point me in the right direction here... i thought i got a good deal on this truck... all i want it for is to sell somefire wood this winter... odnt need it running super well... but i do need it to start

 

As far as I could understand - it clicks instead of cranking? If so - check the battery and then check battery & starter solenoid connections and clean them if nesessery.

Edit - found same question with same answers in another thread. Sorry for doubleposting.
