Interesting problem......
My 87 GL automatic starter turns fine when cold but slower on hot
re-starts...sometimes a lot slower.
BRUUP..........................BRUP...................................BRUP....
...............BRUP..Vroom...............
and god forbid you try to start it hot with the lights (mistakenly) left on.
BTW the first battery of unknown origin that it came with passed a load test
but I traded it in for a new correctly rated one but It only got slightly
better.
Any suggestions?
