thejum57 Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 Out of nowhere, the truck is really slow starting....in the morning it cranks REAL SLOW, but does start. It has always had that classic high pitched, crank for a bit sound that is typical for these animals. But now I wonder if it will start. I replaced the battery 11/08. My friend who sold me the truck said he replaced the starter a couple/ few years ago (reliable friend). I've posted a few times recently about cooling issues & replaced the 4 freeze plugs on the side of the block. That has been resolved. What the heck could be causing the starting problem??? Maybe altenator??? I don't want to nickle & dime myself to death replacing parts. It's an 86 Comanche 2.5l 4cyl. Thanks guys. :huh???: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 How old are the cables? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildman Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Yes, do check your cables........if they look anything like this.......replace them - From what your wrote, it sounds like the cable are not letting the voltage thru to the starter.
