Thanks, I plan to hopefully start It and drive it onto my trailer. I’ll haul it myself. It’s downhill just in case it won’t start at all.

Good suggestion. We tried that when my neighbor got home, then took the cables off and he tried tapping the starter while I hit the start… fired up after a few tries… parked her facing downhill so I can load it Friday.

Makes sense, and as I think this is still the original, 190K+ miles isn’t too shabby for a starter!

Thank you all for all your help! We’ve isolated and determined it’s the starter. Not gonna DIY that, but I have a friend not too far away who used to be a mechanic and drives a tundra with this engine. I’m gonna trailer it to him. Again, thank you all so very much for your help. This was my...

Thank you for your time! Battery voltage checked at 12.5V Little lost as to where to look next
