IT MIGHT BE SOMETHING HOOK UP TO THE SOLENOID THAT SHOULDNT BE HOOK UP TO IT. I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM ON MY 1989 NOTCHBACK FOUND OUT THE GUY THAT OWEND IT BEFORE ME HOOK UP A POWER WIRE TO A GAUGE WAS CAUSING THE PROBLEM.. IF IT HAPPENS AGIAN JUST HIT THE SOLENOID TO SEE IF HELPS..

Default starter not disengaging

im having the same problem. changed solenoid twice, ignition tumbler and starter. still doing it but its random. sometimes it will go months without doing it and i think its fixed then all the sudden doing it again. im lost for ideas. any way it could be a relay? my mechanic said relays either work or they dont so he doesnt think thats it. im gonna try solenoid #3 and see if that works cuz now its doing it almost every time i start it.
