    someone just posted this on USMB:
    pretty good chance that the contacts are just dirty, and will need a few minutes with a wire brush. I know it's an older car, but the starter works exactly the same as the EJ stuff....2 bolts to remove the starter itself, then the wires, 3 8mm/Phillips bolts to pull the cap off the back, don't loose the spring, clean/adjust the copper contacts, reassemble and reinstall.

    pretty simple job, only took me ~30 min this spring on my '86. but I won't be able to get down to him this week.

    thread is here:

    and I also told her to come over here and chime in.
