    So I'm not Talking about My XJ this Time around. Ive been having trouble with My 84 Venture, and haven't found much on other Sites so I figured I'd Ask You Guy's. So My Daily is an 84 Venture 1200 with 83k on it. It actually Runs Great besides 1 Weird little issue. It Starts up fine and Idles till the Fan Kicks on. Rides to the Gas Station no Problem, but when I go to leave it won't Start. I have to wait 5-10 Minutes and it will Fire right up and I won't have an issue the rest of the Day. It does this every single Day. The first Time I shut it down I have to wait at least 5 Minutes before it will Start again. But it Runs perfect after that. Has Anyone ever delt with Anything like this??

    Could be the start solenoid, sometimes they get corrosion inside , it heats up and breaks down internally till it cools down .

    Its Turning over, just won't Fire.. I typically step away from the Pumps and have a Cigarette, and when I'm finished it Fires right up like it never had a Problem to begin with. Its really weird.

    Will it fire if you open the throttle a bit and then press the start button?
