On my '99 Olds 88, when you come out and hit the starter first thing in the morning after it's sat overnight, the first time you hit the starter it will just "click". Hit the starter again, and it will start right up and be OK for the rest of the day.
A local Chevy dealer installed a NAPA reman starter and it was OK for a week and then started doing it again. The battery was new last fall and checks OK with a load tester. I went through all the battery connections and ground connections I could find. The fact that the starter always clicks would seem to indicate the ignition switch is good.
It all seems to point back to the starter, and the Service Manager at the dealer that installed the starter wasn't too enthused about pursuing it farther. (As usual).
Does anyone have any ideas?
