Re: 96 gtx starting problem
Finished cleaning up the starter. Noticed some spots on the rear mounting bracket near the hot battery cable that may be from shorting (arcs) at some point. I bent the positive cable as to mount away from motor and added a washer to raise the cable so there is no possible short with mounting bracket. Starter install was pretty easy since I was well familiar with where the screws went. After all said and done, same symptoms. Will order a starter as everything else has been eliminated. My model GTX must be different configuration as I can't tell how removing the pipe would help with the starter. I did remove the air intake but left everything else intact. Once you find the screws (with mirrors), it's not too bad.
