No start?

Okay, if it is the starter getting stuck, there is a chance the starter motor may need shimmed. I thought it wasn't working at all anymore. LOL So it is a mechanical issue and not an electrical one.

When you removed the old starter, did you notice if there were shims between the starter motor and where it mounts? I looked up online to get a pic of shims and attached it below.

Let me know.

No shimms when I remove starter. But it was working good. How many shimms should I put on?

Hi,

If nothing was removed, then you need to do one at a time to see if that takes care of the issue. Keep in mind, they come in different thicknesses.

You should be able to get them at any parts store. Also, they are not expensive.

Let me know if that takes care of the issue.
