i had this problem years ago, i put a brand new ford, (std) starter on my car, drove 110 miles, stopped, it was dead,
left it a while,it started , as soon as i got home, i went to ford, and got a starter motor for a desiel , and its been 100% good, for a few years now, and it was a straight swap, as i moaned a bit .
knowing my luck, you will see a post tomorrow, " my car wont start" lol
the heatwrap sounds like a good idea though ,
and the hammer jim,
