Post subject: Starter / Starting Problems

Hey, I've got an '84 4cyl. As of yesterday, there seems to be a problem with the starter. It seems like when I leave it sit for a while, it will start right up, but after I shut it off and try to start it up soon after that, it won't start at all.

It cranks normally and starts up the first time, but when I try to start it after that the dash lights flutter dimly, and I hear this clicking noise... which I'm assuming is coming from the starter.

The starter is only 2 months old, and I believe it's one of those cheap starters where it will get damaged if you try to start it without a fully charged battery. (less than 9 volts) Could that have been the problem? The battery isn't that old either, and was fully charged when I replaced the starter.

Anyone know what the problem could be?
