Default yet another problem with the beast

ok well now the other day i was turning on my car and it delayed b4 starting. and since then everytime ive started it it's gotten worse. now it litteraly takes a minute of turning it on and off to start the car. u can here it clicking but it just doesnt start. my deduction...a bad starter? or solenoid? and for sum reason my bulb replacement light comes on but none of my lights are off..blown fuse maybe? any help would be aprreciated.

thanks ahead of time,
marc

Either a weak battery or starter is drawing too many amps.

Check the fuses. But it sounds to me like a bad starter relay.

Default I had about the same problem

With my 86.5 I ended up having to replce the negetive battery terminal because it had the factory one on it and it looked alright but upon further investigation it was cracked and loose next to the bolt that tightnes it hold onto the cable and twist the cable a little to bring pressure onto the terminal and have someone try to start it if it starts right away replace the cable connector then try again if it starts acting up again replace the battery. I deal with DC electrical systems everyday it is usually a connection.
