Re: help with starting

If you just replaced the starter, the first thing that comes to mind is bad electrical connections. Recheck that first. Check both the positive connection at the starter and check for a good ground path as well.

Second thing is check the battery - that's a classic symptom of weak or dead battery.

Third thing is a potential bad starter solenoid.

And last and least likely is that you received a defective replacement starter. You can pull it and bench test by using jumper cables.

Good luck. Let us know what solves it.
