Re-Start Problems

Well I am back to attacking my restart issue again.  I have my A/C and Heat control panel out the car which I though maybe the issue and that is not it.  Ran the car on the street and in my garage for about and hour and the car attempted to restart once but that wasn’t it, will not restart.  I also have my alternator light coming on at low rpm’s on the dash.  I replace it years ago with a new one.  Keep in mind I have always had this re-start problem.  Looking for what direction to go here?  May have to address my alternator problem again first.  Belt is pretty tight, so I don’t think that is it.  My starter is also rapped w/ a heat shield.  Has to be something simple, I just need to find it.  I am trying to get the car close to 100 percent so I can sell it.  I just don’t do anything w/ the car anymore, its time.  Looking for help. 

I let the car sit for two hours.  It restarted 3 times.

Define "won't restart".  Doesn't turn over or turns over but won't start.

Nothing no power to starter, no click of solenoid, nothing.

79forever - This is an older post from back in the day. http://www.VetteRegistry.net/vrforums/no-crank-82-need-help_message319966.html That said it may not apply to your situation due to your problem sounding like a heat soak issue. However ever bit of info helps. Good luck !

Been down the heat soak road.  I wrapped the started years ago with the fiberglass heat shield.

Check your ignition switch on top of the column . A rod from your key switch runs down to the switch. 2 small 5/16 screws hold it in place. I usually drop column, remove air ducts.

What should I look for?  I have never done this.  I saw on another post to try putting it in neutral and start also.

Since it's an automatic, try holding the key in the Start position while moving the tranny from Park to Drive to see if the starter tries in one of the non-neutral positions.  If it does then the neutral safety switch requires adjusting.

Thanks will try that.  I saw an old message on this also.
