Hello, I'm new to this forum and need some help. I recently picked up a blue 93 xr2 and i fricken love it, however, I have one problem with it.
Sometimes, when i try to start it, nothing happens, doesn't turn over at all, but the dash lights and interior lights still work. i can hear the fuel pump but no clicking or anything from the starter. I'll stop trying and an hour later, the car will start up as if it's never had a problem. Sometimes it won't start all day and i'll try again and it will, the next day. I checked the battery with a multimeter after sitting a week and the voltage stayed around 12.4v and the alternator is putting out 14 something.. I put brand new battery post connectors and made sure the posts were clean. I noticed a small connector on the starter was slightly loose (could wiggle around and pull off fairly easily). When it does start, it sounds like the starter is strong, but i'm no expert.
On another note, the key cylinder falls out if you pull on it. not sure if that's related or not
Can anyone shed some light on where to look or what to do to help fix this problem?
