Periodically it will not start nor attempt to turn over like the battery is dead. wait ten minutes roughly and it will start right up. i have had battery checked it's good thought maybe it was the solenoid on the starter. so I put new starter in being the one that was in there looked like it was in bad shape. thought ignition switch but buddy said it looked fine, I do not know. Any ideas?

Hello,

This could be a problem with the wiring going to the starter. I have included for you in the diagrams below a troubleshooting guide for you to go through that should help you track the problem you are having down. I have also included a wiring diagram for you as well. Go through the guide and get back to us with what you find out.

Thanks,
Alex
