1991 Nissan Not Starting

mtscarecrow · 05-03-2008, 01:22 PM

Hello!

I have a 1991 Nissan SEV6 King Cab 4X4 and a week ago I stopped by a C-Store and when I came out it wouldn't start. I walked home and got a ride back with another battery, but when I tried to start it, it started. I drove it home and shut it off and tried to start it right away and it wouldn't start. I had a friend "Pull-Start" me and it ran fine until I shut it off. I changed the battery but it didn't help. I did notice that once it was started I tried to start it while it was running hoping to hear that "Grinding Noise" but didn't. Thinking it was the starter I removed it and had it bench tested at the local Checker Auto Parts Store and it tested Fine. So NowI"m wondering what it might be. I'm hoping someone here can give me some insight. Any idea's please email here or at montanascarecrow@yahoo.com

Thanks, Joe

it may still be your starter. it may work fine cold but when it heats up it will fail. easy way to check is to take it out and heat it up with a blow torch and then try to bench test it
