Re: starter

Probably a tired starter. Because of the location of the starter, near the
header, it gets 'heat soaked' and that makes it less efficient resulting in
your problem. After all these years it's probably been drenched.

Not an uncommon problem with other kinds of cars and which is why some
companies make insulating blankets for starters.

I'd get a new starter rather than get stuck some place, although these cars
can easily be push started.
