[QUOTE="roadmasters, post: 1399909, member: 565441"] Check for power at the smaller signal wire at the starter when you attempt to crank. If there is none work your way back to the ignition switch. On those older Mk2's the starters can only handle the heat of the exhaust manifold above it for so long. Suprised yours even lasted this long. Ignition switches on those also aren't the most reliable. Even seen a rotten main ground wire (8gauge) on the transmission to block bolt cause your described problem. [/QUOTE]
