Here's an odd one. 94 V6 grandam, 115,000 miles.

Drives fine, all guages look good. Ill drive for about 20mins or so. Shut the car off and then try to start it. will not even turn over. No clicking, not acting like its trying to start nothing. The lights still come on fine. Brand New Battery and Alt. Charging system looks fine. Wait about 10mins, then it will start again with no issues.

Bad starter? Bad Ignition switch? Starter relay? Anyone else have a simmilar issue?

does the fuel pump make any sound when you trying to start it?

Sounds like the start solenoid, It might be going bad.
It get hot with the car running, let it sit and cool and it will turn over the motor.

I won't say go buy one, but when it is fixed the starter/soleniod will have been replaced.
