Thanks, but it was on trickle charge. Battery is hot. Everything works, just won’t crank. Bypassed VATS. Still had an intermittent issue. Thought it was the starter because it would fire up cold but not hot. Linkage to the clutch pedal was coming off. Now it’s pinned. Starter was fine at that time. Now you try to crank it and nothing happens. Again.

I replaced my starter two years ago, and found that the wire connectors were falling apart. It is possible that the metal in the wire passing the voltage to the starter. I’m assuming the VATS is still bypassed. You can peak at it with a. Flashlight and wiggle it if it is deteriorated. Just a thought.

Also search threads with DNS (Does Not Start) usually after a heat soak and you are trying to restart to go home! 🤬

What kind of Flowmaster exhaust is on your car and is there any way you could upload a video of it to youtube?
