Hello Everyone,
Thanks to people from this forum whom helped me in the past, Im enjoying my X recently.
However, something that happened every 5-6 starts, now happens regulary.
When it would happen, I just kept turning the key 3-4 times and it would finally engage.
I have bertone from 1985, Euro 1500 Carb.
Sometimes I try to start, it only click one time and then nothing.
Last time I was stuck so I was thinking the flywheel maybe in a unlucky position.
So I would gear in 1st or 2nd, move my ass in the car, then try again. It worked for me this way for a while.
Last time I stay stuck for 15min on a parking lot because this wasnt working too well. For some reasons it restarted after I gear in 2nd and push the car with my foot outside the door open, to move the car back and forth a little while in gear.
Since then, I tried to start the car while its in front my home, (but this time I havent parked in gear) and the starter worked well for the last 2 days (tried every 5 hours or so)
Even tonite, i just wanted to try, so I turnt the key quickly, and after like 0.5s the motor was already running...
Actually I didnt even want to start the car tonite... haha
So I dont know if I have a bad starter, or something else. I think I already havea relay (see this photo, behind passenger seat)
I have search on this forum and on other forums, Usually its the corrosion or low voltage, I dont think its the case. At the same time, like I just tried 10min ago, the starter is working fine.
Battery is fine, I have a spare battery in my frunk, and when I was stuck on the parking lot I switched battery, no effect.
New Starter is pricy and hard to find in France, and the reduction gear ones are even pricier.
Im just not even sure its the starter.
Thanks !
