1994 Volvo 850 No Start

Post by jgacs »

I have been having this problem of my car ,once every month, of taking a while to start up.I have to crank it for like 5-10 mins before it will finally start.After doing some reading on this site, it think its either my fuel pump or relay.
Now my real problem is, yesterday i took my car to a tire shop to replace my tires.Just as I was about to move my car to the shop garage, guess what? It would not start.So I keep on cranking it and cranking it for like 30 minutes all of a sudden- every time i turn the ignition key it would not crank at all!I can see all the lights go on on my dashboard but still would not crank or even hear a click!I tried using a booster cable thinking it was my battery but no dice :( .Now my car is stuck in the tire shop :(
Pls help.

Thanks

Sounds like the starter solenoid might have gone 'phutt'
